White-tailed deer has this type of dispersion in which they are dispersed unpredictably.
What is random dispersion?
100
Ideal conditions for any population to grow. There are unlimited food, water, space, etc. that would allow the population to grow without limit.
What is exponential growth/J-curve?
100
Organisms produce as many offspring as possible in a short period of time to take advantage of environmental factor.
What is r-strategist?
200
The pattern of spacing of a population within an area.
What is dispersion?
200
A model that explains how fast a population grows.
What is population growth rate?
200
American black bear males disperse in this fashion in which they are almost equally spaced.
What is uniform dispersion?
200
A population growth that levels off at the end due to shortages of food, water, air, space, etc. that causes the population size to fluctuate up and down.
What is logistic growth/S-curve?
200
Organisms that are large, produce only a few offspring per time, and invest a lot of time to take care of the young.
What is k-strategist?
300
Limiting factor that does not depend upon the number of individuals in the population.
What is density-independent factor?
300
This population growth displays J-curve in a graph.
What is exponential growth?
300
American bison are dispersed and grouped together in "herds."
What is clumped dispersion?
300
Fires, earthquakes, floods, or other natural disasters that affect the population size.
What are examples of density-independent factors?
300
Mosquitoes, insects, fish, and fruit flies are examples of this type of strategist.
What is r-strategist?
400
Limiting factor in the environment that depends on the number of individuals in a population.
What is density-dependent factor?
400
This population growth displays an S-curve in a graph.
What is logistic growth?
400
A pattern of spacing of a population within an area.
What is dispersion?
400
Contagious diseases, parasites, predation, and competition that affect the population size.
What are examples of density-dependent factors?
400
Elephants, pandas, bears, and tigers are examples of this type of strategist.
What is k-strategist?
500
Moving away from a population.
What is emigration?
500
Maximum number of individuals that an environment can support for long term.
What is carrying capacity?
500
This factor causes the population growth to level off.
What is carrying capacity?
500
What is the room number that you are currently in?
