population regulation
in the serengetti
100

a growth model with a J-shaped curve

what is exponential growth model

100
regulation of a population by a higher trophic level

top down regulation

100

the wildebeest population that experienced top-down regulation

what are the non-migratory/resident wildebeest

200

population growth with unlimited resources

what is exponential

200

regulation of a population when individual survival risk is irrespective of population size

what is density-independent

200

researchers determined the health of the dead wildebeest by looking at this.

what is the bone marrow

300
population growth model whose growth rate decreases as it reaches carrying capacity

what is logistic growth model

300

type of regulation exerted by a virus or other disease 

what is top down regulation

300
the larger the nonmigratory herbivore in the Serengetti the more this type of regulation was a factor

what is bottom-up regulation (DD)

400

the maximum number of individuals that can be supported by the environment

what is carrying capacity (K)


400

type of regulation as a result of limited resources

what is bottom-up regulation

400

cause of the vast majority of deaths in small nonmigratory herbivores in the Serengetti.

what is predation

500

the mathematical expression that is defined as the population growth rate

what is dN/dT

500

population regulation as a result of the effect of a natural disaster such as fire

what is density-independent regulation

500

the population growth curve of the migratory wildebeest from 1958 - 2000 exhibiting limited resources

what is logistic growth curve
