Primate evolution

Primates are a relatively new species and first appeared in the fossil record nearly 55 million years ago. They may have originated as far back as the cretaceous period. Their fossils were observed in North America, Asia, and Europe. Long before the first monkeys and their prosimian relatives developed, most animal species thrived and died. The first primates did not exist until about 50-55 million years ago, even though the planet is 4.54 billion years old and the first life goes back at least 3.5 billion years. Dinosaurs had been extinct for 10 to 15 million years when this happened.

A population of boreal toads has a current size of 100 and time steps are measured in years. If the instantaneous rate of increase is 0.8 (toads/(toadXtime)), what will the expected population size be after two years? Note: You need to first figure out which equation to use for this problem. O 64 toads O 117 toads O 495 toads O 6400 toads No toads will be left because the instantaneous rate of increase is less than 1.0.
