Question
Chapter 59.3, Problem 3EQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The statistical test to see whether the mortality from parasitoids was different between ambient and elevated carbon dioxide chambers.
Introduction: Peter Stiling and Bert Drake performed various experiments to increase the level of carbon dioxide around the patches of forest in Kennedy Space Center in Florida. They carried out these experiments for observing the response of forest ecosystem to elevated level of carbon dioxide.

(a) Consider a species of insect that depends for survival on a plant on which it feeds. It is to the advantage of the insect to keep the hosts alive. Write an appro- priate system of differential equations for the parasite population P(t) and the host population H(t). (b) How might your model adapt to the study of diseases caused by parasitic organisms?arrow_forwardIs the correct answer c)? If so, could you please explain why? Thanksarrow_forward

It determines the carrying capacity of the habitat concerned . 2.) Identify the statement about per capita growth rate that is not correct. A.) It does not depend on the period for which the population is under consideration. B.) It is used to compare populations of the same species but of different sizes. C.) It is independent of the initial size of population under study. D.) The change in population size can be expressed as the rate of change per individual in terms capita growth rate. 3.)
