Population description
I am a big carnivore like a bear. We are distributed evenly throughout an area. what is my spatial distribution.
What is uniform distribution?
Populations with no limiting factors experience this type of growth rate...
What is "...exponential growth."
I am freak weather event. What kind of limiting factor am I?
What is Density independent limiting factor.
The shape of exponential growth graph
What is a J?
I am a perch. We swim and travel around in large groups called schools. What is my spatial distribution?
What is clumped distribution?
Mortality refers to this rate.
What is the death rate?
Disease is this type of limiting factor.
What is density dependent.
When the birth rate is less than the death rate.
What is the population is shrinks.
This describes the number of organisms living in a particular amount of area.
What is population density?
This is the equation for population density
What is population / area
A population or horses had 5 births, 12 deaths, 23 horses left the population and joined another herd and 15 joined the population. How many horses emigrated?
What is 23?
Density independent limiting factors are generally ________.
What is Abiotic?
These are three ways to describe the population.
Population density, spatial distribution, and growth rate.
This is the growth model that demonstrates what happens when a population reaches its carrying capacity
What is logistical growth model?
This is the area that my population can live in
What is population range?
This are 2 reasons for immigration...
What are (Examples of) Density dependent limiting factors or density independent limiting factors?
The invasive species garlic mustard took over in eastern Ohio. It grows big and fast and takes over other plants habitat and uses their resources.
What is density dependent?
Exponential growth stops for this reason.
What is "reaches carrying capacity"?
This is the shape of a logistical growth model.
What is S?
My population is spread throughout my population range with no real order. What is my spatial distribution?
What is the Random distribution?
Natality is this...
What is the birth rate?
What would you expect to happen to a population of mice on an island if a bunch of snakes were introduced to that island? What type of limiting factor is this?
What is "the population would drop because the predation is a density dependent limiting factor"?
This is the difference between emigration and immigration.
What is "Immigration is when an organism joins a population and emigration is when an organism leaves a population"?
