Fly Population 4. The graph below represents the growth of a population of flies in a jar. Which letter(s) indicates the part of the graph where biotic potential is the only thing affecting the population? Choose all letters that apply. B Days 5. A population of mice has grown so rapidly that there are 2,400 individuals in an ecosystem that will support about 1,800 mice. The mouse population is most likely to A. undergo a decline in size, possibly to a stable level at or below 1,800 individuals B. have no effect on the population size of predators that feed on mice C. continue to have a birth rate that equals the death rate D. continue to increase 6. A population will always grow exponentially A. if it is limited only by density dependent factors. B. if there are no limiting factors C. if it shows logistical growth

APPLY YOUR KNOWLEDGE Human populations are subiect to the same population control factors in the environment that mipact natural populations. For example, during the 14th century, the bubonic plague killed approximately one- third of the human population. A. Is the bubonic plague an example of a dènsity-dependent or density-independent factor? Explain. B. Two-thirds of the population survived the bubonic plague, even though many of the survivors were most likely bitten by disease-carrying fleas. In terms of evolution, explain how it was possible to be a survivor. C. Discuss two ways that humans have increased the carrying capacity of their population.
1. Explain what overpopulation is and why it is a problem in layman's terms (simple language that anyone can understand, Mirriam-Webster's). Imagine explaining it to an office worker, a factory worker, or a street vendor who might not have technical knowledge of the subject.

Biology Question! Water wisteria is an aquatic plant that is easy to care for and reproduces very quickly. A small man-made pond of 350 L contains 78 water wisteria plants. 15 new plants are introduced daily to the pond, while 50 plants are taken out once a week to be sold at local pet shops. What is the overall population change in a two-week period? Express your answer rounded to the nearest whole number. What is the population density of water wisteria at the beginning? Express your answer as a value between 0 and 1 rounded to two decimal places.

3. In 1940 there were 12 whooping cranes in the population. In 1945, five years after hunting whooping cranes was made illegal, ecologists calculated the whooping crane population growth rate (X) at 1.2 and estimated the population size to be 30 individuals. Using the population growth rate calculated from 1940-1945, what would be the estimated population size for whooping cranes 20 years into the future (1965)?
