Question 15Large ground finches have distinct reproduction periods after the first rain. If17 finches were introduced on a very large and newly developed island with alot of open niches, and we know that the per capita growth rate is 1.91, howmany large ground finches will you predict there to be after 4 years?159,52513035,326353226◄ Previous

QUESTION 4 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 It will not change O It will increase 2 times O It will decrease QUESTION 5 What types of species interactions are used for biological pest control? Select all that apply. O parasitoidism O commensalism O predation O mutualism QUESTION 6 Many insects spend most of their lives as larvae either underground or in lakes or rivers and members of the same population emerge at a specific synchronized time suddenly appearing as vast swarms of flying adults. This is an example of O reproductive numerical response O functional response O…
Question 3 A disease's basic reproductive rate, Ro -S BL. where S is the density of susceptible individuals, B is the transmission rate, and L is the infectious period. Which of the parameters lised to calculate Ro is being targeted by masking practices that have been implemented for COVID-19? O B. which is the rate of disease transmission between infected and susceptible individuals in the population. The parameter B accounts for both contact rates and the probability that a contact event leads to disease spread. Social distancing changes the probability that a contact event will result in transmission. Os which is the density of susceptible individuals, Social distancing decreases the density of people. O B. which is the rate of disease transmission between infected and susceptible individuals in the population. If people change their behavior across the entire population, such that there are fewer opportunities for infected people to contact susceptible people, the transmission rate…
Quèstion 15 The species-area relationship described by MacArthur and Wilson holds true for any "island" or patch of habitat surrounded by a matrix of differing habitat type. only for oceanic islands. only for birds and mammals, and not reptiles and amphibians. only for habitats between 30N and 30S latitudes.
QUESTION 10 In salt marsh communities, the saltmarsh species Spartina patens is typically found closer to land than Spartina alterniflora: You expect that this is because Spartina distribution of S. alternifiora would expand towards the is competitively dominant over Spartina and that if you removed S. patens from the system, the patens, alternifiora, land patens, alterniflora, ocean alterniflora, patens, land alterniflora, patens, ocean patens, alterniflora, no change in distribution OO OO O

Match the growth stages with the letters corresponding to that stage on the growth curve above. High r value results in exceeding of K. 1. a Competition regulates population growth 2. b A flood takes out the population. 3. C Carrying Capacity 4. d Growth in low population 5. e density; density-dependent factors not yet important.
QUESTION 16 You are examining a beloved population of trillium in the backyard of your childhood home. You recall as a child that flowers were bright white. As you return to the population you note that many (but not all) of the flowers have a faint purple vertical stripe in the middle of each petal. List each of Darwin’s postulates and what must be true about your population if it has undergone evolution by natural selection for petal color.
Question 24 If two different populations of ground squirrels experienced increased gene flow, what would be the expected results between these two populations. lower average fitness in both populations increased genetic difference between the two populations higher average fitness in both populations decreased genetic difference between the two populations
Question 10 A, B, and C are three different island species and all share a common ancestor. Their ranges are shown in the diagram below. Note that A and B are on a separate island from species C. Species A andB are isolated from one another by a river. There are two populations of species C (C1 and C2) that are isolated from one another by a mountain range. C2 A Mountain River Is the following statement consistent with the data presented in the diagram, above? Choose True for yes, the statement is consistent with the diagram. Choose False for no, the statement is not consistent with the diagram.
Question 10 Bears are omnivores, they eat plants or animals. If in a particular ecosystem the trophic efficiency from plants to herbivores 10%, and the trophic efficiency from herbivores to herbivore-eating bears is 20%, what % of the the plant energy is transferred to bears? (Enter a number. For example, if you think the answer is 10%, enter '10')
