For #10-12, match the parameters with the type of graph they would generate: A. Intermediate growth rate & small initial population 10. A long period of almost no growth-the curve looks nearly flat. 11. A long period of slow but clearly B High growth rate & large initial population accelerating growth-the curve starts to become steeper at the end. C. Small growth rate & small initial population 12. Extremely rapid growth from the very beginning.

**Investigating different scenarios**
Waterbuck are a large antelope found in sub-Saharan Africa. Waterbuck populations in Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique are recovering after a devastating civil war. Scientists are trying to understand and predict changes in the size of waterbuck populations using models.
13. The initial values for the waterbuck population are as follows: birth rate (b) = 0.68, death rate (d) = 0.29, N₀ = 140. Calculate the waterbuck population growth rate r. (Hint: r = b - d)

6. What does the y-axis represent? ______________________________________
7. Exit the "How to Use" page by clicking on the x button on the top right. Move the growth rate r slider to its lowest value of 0.1, then gradually increase it. What happens to the population size as you increase the growth rate?
8. Now place the growth rate at r = 0.5. (You can do this by adjusting the slider, or you can type in the value in the box next to the "r=" label and hit return.) Describe how the population growth varies if it starts from a small initial value (N₀ = 5 individuals) versus a larger initial value (N₀ = 100 individuals)? Change the "N" values accordingly to run each simulation.
9. Keep the growth rate at r = 0.5, and set N₀ = 1000 individuals. What is N when t = 6? To answer this question, you can type the new value of "t" into the dialog box. Then, rescale the graph so that you can see the higher values of N: Click on the gear icon and change the Max value of Pop.(Nₜ) to 25,000.
N = ____________
For #10-12, match the parameters with the type of graph they would generate:
10. A long period of almost no growth—the curve looks nearly flat. ________
A. Intermediate growth rate & small initial population
