This shows a "snapshot" of a current population.  It has both male and female sides in the diagram, and has the ages of a specific population.

What is an age-structure diagram?  (Aka- population pyramid).

This type of "strategist" has many babies!

R strategist

Density-dependent or independent?:  competition

Density-dependent

100

A collection of common, shared genes is called this.

What is a gene pool?

200

Volodymyr Zelensky

Who was Time Magazine's person of the year, 2022?

"These" restrict the growth of a population.

What are limiting factors?

200

This "type" of strategists lives in a very unstable environmental condition, so it is to their advantage to reproduce quickly to continue their species!

What is a R-strategist?
200

Density-dependent or independent?: flood

Independent

200

When 2 species become separated and cannot be shared by reproduction, "this" happens.

What is "speciation"?  (the making of a new species).

300

New England Patriots

Who won the most super bowls? (6)

300

A group of organisms of the same species, in one geographic area is "this."

What is a population?

300

Explain the environment likely to be found where there are "K-strategist" species.

This environment will likely be stable, because a K-strategists invests a lot of time in its offspring, and reproducing takes a lot of energy and time.

300

Density-dependent or independent?: Drought

Independent

300

Differences in reproductive organ anatomy that keeps 2 species separate. 

What is mechanical isolation?

400

2 species competing for the same limited resources can not both have thriving populations.  1 will die or move away.

What is the principle of competitive exclusion?

400

The maximum number of individuals that can be supported by a geographic area is "this".

What is carrying capacity?

400


Describe something about this graph.


Type 1- Many of this organism tend to live a long time.

Type 2- Organisms with this survivor ship curve are constantly dying.

Type 3- Have high death rates for the young, but organisms that live into middle/old age tend to live a long time.

Type 1 & 2- K strategist (generally)

Type 3- R strategist 

400

Density-dependent or independent?: Food supply

Density dependent (usually)

400

Differences in courtship & reproductive behavior.

What is behavioral isolation?

500

A mule is an example of this...

Give an example of an animal that is not a species.

Describe 1 thing about this graph:

- Logistic is S

- Exponential is J

- Carrying capacity is the black line

- This graph shows a population's growth over time

500

Explain why a R-strategist has a type 3 survivorship curve.

Because many are born, but many also die in young age.  Only the ones that "make it" to middle or old age, will go on to live their lives.

500

Describe 3 specific density dependent & 1 density independent factors that could be applied to local deer populations.

3 dd:

competition

food

disease

1 id:

drought, fire

500

When organisms mate at different times of year, thus keeping their species seperate.

What is temporal isolation?
