Chapter 55.5, Problem 2SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
The manner in which the analysis of population viability assist in the development of a conservation plan for a species.
Introduction:
The conservation biologists are the researchers who analyze the status of the living organisms and take initiatives to protect the biodiversity. They look out for the ecology and behavior of the species in order to protect them. The number of individuals require to conserve a species are analyzed by the conservation biologist.
