Inplants, “self-thinning” refers to reduction in:a.the biomass of an individual in response to competition.b.the total biomass of a population in response to competition.c.both population density and population biomass in response tocompetition.d.population density in response to competition, as population biomassincreases.e.population density due to grazing by herbivores.
K-selected species typically a) have short life spans b) display a logistic graph c) are more competitive than r-selected species d) live close to the biotic potential, taking advantage of the environmental conditions
In the land between the lakes, Elk and Bison Prairie, we currently have 125 bison and 15 elk. These species are known to compete for some but not all of their resources. We are able to determine that the carrying capacity of the bison K1 is 200 and that the alpha (competition coefficient) is 4. The carrying capacity for Elk (K2) is 100 and the beta (competition coefficient) is 1.
An ecologist studying several forest-dwelling, insect-eating bird species does not find any evidence of interspecific competition. The most likely explanation is (a) lack of a keystone species (b) low species richness (c) pronounced intraspecific competition (d) coevolution of predatorprey strategies (e) resource partitioning
Predation, disease, and competition are examples of _______________ factors. (a) density-dependent (b) density-independent (c) survivorship (d) dispersal (e) semelparous
The per capita growth rate of a population where dispersal is not a factor is expressed as (a) i + e (b) b d (c) dN/dt (d) rN(K N) (e) (K N) K
In a competitive interaction in which species A has a lower carrying capacity (KA) than species B (KB), it is expected that species ____________________ will go extinct.
Which statement about zero population growth isoclines of two competing species is true? A. Species coexistence requires that the two isoclines cross. B. The crossing of the two isoclines is a sufficient condition for species coexistence. C. If the species coexist, they will each do so at a higher density than either would if placed alone. D. Strongly competing species can only coexist if the two species have very different carrying capacities. E. Coexistence will occur if the two isoclines are parallel.
The lotka-volterra equation that describes rate of change in the predator population doesn't include intrisic rate for predators. How does it accomodate for growth in predators if the rate is missing?
