Use the following information to answer the next question. Two populations of birds were studied in a forest that had an area of 100 m2. The density of bird population I was 8 birds/m2. Population II had a density of 12 birds/m2. A scientist noted a few statements in his report. Which of the following statements about the two bird populations is not correct? The study area covered by both Population I and Population II is 10 km2. Population I has 400 more birds than population II. The number of birds in population II is 1200. The number of birds in population I is 800.

Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Scientists are trying to estimate the size of a bird species whose local population is 325. Since they cannot see all 325 at once, they will estimate it using mark-recapture methods. They initially capture 64 individuals, mark them, and release them. They then recapture 50. What is the most likely number of MARKED birds in their recapture sample? (You may need to round up or down for the correct answer.) Multiple Choice -50 -1 -10 -5 -0 -253

The mark-recapture method is used to estimate the population size of mountain yellow-legged frogs in the San Gabriel Mountains of southern California. 100 frogs are captured and marked. A week later, 50 frogs are captured, and 10 of them are marked. The total population size is
Use the information provided: population experiences density-dependent growth K or carrying capacity is 180 r = 0.032 individual/month 1. Calculate how many bugs are added to the population next month when population size is 65? 2. Now keeping the condition of density dependent growth, let's change some numbers: K=270 and r=0.13. If the current population is 125 bugs, how large will the population be in 12 months?

You have been researching the biodiversity of different species of lizards in the Florida Everglades. You select a one square acre plot of land and begin tagging and counting the different reptiles found in that area over 6 months. After 6 months of research, you collected the following data: Species Count Green Anole 16 Brown Anole 72 American Alligator 3 Burmese python 2 Corn Snake 9 Eastern Glass Lizard 8 Use the blanks below to answer the following questions: 1. What is the biodiversity index of the one acre lot observed? 2. If you collected the same information for a second square acre 10 miles away and determined that acre to have a biodiversity index of 0.37, would you consider the first area to be biologically diverse and why or why not? 3. What do you think is suppressing biodiversity in the first acre counted? a b c
