A group of ecologists want to test if an industrial effluent affects the diversity of aquatic invertebrates in a river. To do this, they compare the community of aquatic invertebrates between two sites: one upstream of the effluent and one downstream of the effluent. Which variable should they calculate to compare the diversity of the two communities of invertebrates? The carrying capacity of the river The net reproductive rate The Shannon Index The gross primary productivity of the river The instantaneous rate of growth
There are two types of life strategies used by organisms to survive in their environment. 1. K-selected strategy - growth rate is near the carrying capacity 2. r-selected strategy - growth rate is near biotic potential Match the characteristices below to the life strategy they represent J-cruve Logistic Growth Long life span Few offspring
