Science
What is an organism?
They produce few offspring but invest heavily in their care
What is Type1 survivorship curve?
those that enter the population, not by birth
What is the "I" immigration rate
measurement of population per unit land area
what is population density
an animal that is caught and killed by another for food
What is prey
a particular section, group, or type of people or animals living in an area or country
What is a population
Competition, predation, parasitism and disease
What are density-dependent limiting factors
individuals of the same territory must compete for limited resources
what is uniform dispersion
Weather, disaster and human activity
What are density-independent limiting factors?
an animal that naturally preys on others
what is a predator?
any natural occuring material or substance int he environment that an orgganism needs for growth, maintenance, and reproduction
What is a resource
Factors that are affected by the number of individuals in an area
What is a density- dependent factor?
resources are spread unevenly within an ecosystem. Individuals gather into groups where resources are available
What is clumped dispersion
describes how carbon moves between the atmosphere soils, living creatures, the ocean and human sources
What is the carbon cycle
r=(b+i)-(d+e)
What is the equation for population growth rate?
number of organisms that an ecosystem can sustainably support
What is a carrying capacity
•A teacher and her 10th grade biology class counted 267 squirrels in an area of 13 square kilometers?
•1. What is the population density?
20.5
spatial distribution at any particular moment of the individuals of a species
what is population dispersion
birds, small mammals like squirrels. Chances of dying are roughly equal at any age
What is Type 2 survivorship curve?
the school Ms. Stewart graduated from? (must be the FULL name)
Southern University and A&M College
graph that shows how many individuals in a population survive to different ages
The variable for population density
What is r
Who are the trees?
Chemistry :)
