A population of seed-eating birds of species A has 100 individuals, intrinsic growth rate (r) =0.2 and carrying capacity = 1000. 50 individuals of another species (B) of seed-eating birds are introduced into the same environment. If the birds of species B are two times smaller and eat two times less food than the birds of species A, how the growth rate of the population of species A will change after this introduction? O It will increase 4 times O Iit will not change O It will increase 2 times O It will decrease

R and K Selection
R and K selection are concepts in ecology used to describe traits in the fluctuation of a population or population dynamics. For example, they describe the life-association traits between parent and offspring, such as quantity or number of young ones born at a time, quality of parental care, the age to maturity, and reproductive effort.
Question

Transcribed Image Text:QUESTION 4
