Assume that the population of the greater roadrunner in the Guadelope Desert was 250 per hectare at the beginning of 1999. If the carrying capacity, K , is 750 and r=0.25 per year, what is the number ofroadrunners: (a) after a year later, (b) ten years later, (c) after a score, (d) a century later, and (e) a millennium later?
The global human population has surpassed 7 billion, far exceeding our population’s size throughout our history on Earth. Name some specific means by which we have apparently raised Earth’s carrying capacity for our species. Do you think we can continue to raise our carrying capacity? How might we do so? What limiting factors exist for the human population today? Might Earth’s future carrying capacity for us decrease? Why or why not?
PLEASE HELP! 1. There is a population of 1,500 bunnies that have plenty of resources and space. Find the growth rate of the population in one year where 300 bunnies are born and 100 bunnies die that year. (assume no immigration or emigration) (show work) A.What is the growth rate? B. How many bunnies will be in the population to start the next year?
in 2021, the growth rate of the human population was 1.03% per year with a thencurrent population of 7.875 billion people. Assuming a carrying capacity of 15 billionindividuals,when will the population reach 14.5 billion (i.e., nearly carrying capacity)?
Urgent A kid let go 4 snails he bought at the pet store in a pond. A year later, the population of snails has grown to 18. Assuming that the population is growing exponentially, how many snails can one expect after 9 years? Round your answer to the closest full number.
Chapter 12: Population Dynamics over Time Why do populations fluctuate around the carrying capacity rather than staying smooth as suggested by the logistic growth model? How is this related to growth rate and generation time? Explain how delayed density dependence is related to timing of resources and reproduction. Explain on demographic stochasticity and environmental stochasticity are connected to small population sizes and the Allee effect? What is a metapopulation? Explain source and sink models and stepping stone models. How is a metapopulation’s size and isolation related to extinction and colonization rates?

7)Which of the following is the best definition of a trophic cascade? a)Significantly changing the population size of one species causes significant changes in the population dynamics of other species b)Adding or removing one species causes significant changes the population dynamics of other species in the community c)Significantly changing the population size of a species at one trophic level causes significant changes in the population dynamics of populations that do not directly interact with this species d)Adding or removing species causes a collapse of the food web for that community e)None of these definitions are accurate
