Assume a population of desert tortoises has a per capita growth rate (r) or 0.039. If this rate could be sustained, how long would it take for the population that is currently 186 individuals to reach 450 individuals? (just give the simplest expression with the data provided).

Population Growth

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.
