You learned that the above data for juvenile survival were obtained in the wild, but
during a year with very benign environmental conditions. If you were given the
chance to re-estimate juvenile survival during a year with harsh environmental
conditions for juvenile survival, would you expect the estimate of B to be larger or
smaller for each of the populations and why?
