Stable cycles b. Chaos O c. Equilibrium O d. Damped Oscillations O e. More than one of the above is possibleQuestion 4 Prebiotic foods are rich in fiber, and when eaten, they help to supply gut beneficial bacteria with food. If a person starting eating a high prebiotic diet, what would happen to the carrying capacity and populations of gut bacteria? O the carrying capacity would increase and the populations would decline O the carrying capacity would increase and the populations would increase O the carrying capacity would decrease and the populations would increase O the carrying capacity would decrease and the populations would decline A Moving to another question will save this response. %23 3 5 6 7 00I need help answering questions 5-8 using the graph
- Question 1: In the land between the lakes, Elk and Bison Prairie, we currently have 125 bison and 15 elk. These species are known to compete for some but not all of their resources. We are able to determine that the carrying capacity of the bison K1 is 200 and that the alpha (competition coefficient) is 4. The carrying capacity for Elk (K2) is 100 and the beta (competition coefficient) is 1. Part a) At what population size of elk will the isocline of the bison intersect (K1/alpha)? Round up to the nearest whole numberQUESTION 5 Which statement does NOT apply to ecological studies? A unit of time might be the "unit of observation" The sample size is the total number of people on whom the data is based They are subject to the ecological fallacy of applying population level associations to individuals They generally use statistics that have already been calculated for the groups as the variables Confounding is very difficult to control for with most ecological dataWhat is often true of a population of organisms with a type IIl suvivorship curve? they produce few offspirng and invest more energy in each offspring O they produce more offspring and invest little energy in each Othey have low death rates during early life stages O they are equally likely to die at any age
- QUESTION 3 (a) What is resource partitioning? (b) Fully describe an excellent example of resource partitioning. Samsung Triple Camera Shot with my Galaxy A03sQUESTION 5 Which of the following hypotheses is associated with the evolution of reciprocal altruism between closely related individuals in a population? O (A) Anisogamy O (B) Hamilton s rule O (C) Kin selection (D) Parental investment hypothesis (E) Inclusive fitness OUES TIONQuestion 3 Which of the following statements is consistent with the abundance-center hypothesis? (Choose all correct answers). (Lech Species decrease in abundance towards the range periphery, as conditions become less optimal for growth and reproduction. Towards the range periphery, birth rates far exceed death rates, compared to areas at the range center. Areas at the center of the species' range have higher abundance due to high immigration rates of individuals from the range periphery Areas at the center of the range are more likely to be source populations, whereas areas at the range edge are more likely to represent sink populations. Within a species distribution, individuals are most abundant towards the range center, where conditions for growth and reproduction are optimal.
- Question 3: I introduced 2 species of super-mutant ant species into my terrarium. These are the only species competing for resources. Species 1's common name is the TEN-headed ZINGer ant and they have a population size of N1 and a carrying capacity of K1. The blue line shows the isocline for species 1. Species 2's common name is the Evil Ant. The population size of species 2 is N2 and the carrying capacity is K2. The green line shows the isocline for species 2 The red dot is the present combination of N1 and N2. Part a) Given the data how will the population of both species (N1 and N2) change- pick the correct colored arrow (pink, brown, black, or red) to show the direction that the combination of N1 and N2 will changequestion will save this response. Question 8 What does the Lotka-Volterra model simulate?
