1 A Blast from the Past! Every March, the state of Georgia encourages fisheries to breed the Walleye fish to stock North Georgia reservoirs. The walleye species has four life-stages: eggs, fry (wall- eye hatchlings), “fingerlings" (adolescent walleye) and adulthood. According to the US Department of Natural Resources, each year: • 30% of walleye eggs hatch successfully • 2% of fry survive to be fingerlings • 10% of fingerlings survive to adulthood • Adult female walleye lay an average of 25, 000 female eggs per year. Also, ap- proximately 91% of adult female walleye survive from year-to-year. The goal of this problem is to model the long-term behavior of female walleye. a. Draw a matrix diagram describing the dynamics of the system.
