The data shown in Table 1 were collected from a study of predation on rabbit warrens and nests found on different soil types across seven regions of Australia between 1996-1998. Using these data, answer the questions that follow. 7. Rank the soil types, in order, from that where the percentage of warrens attacked by foxes islowest to that where it is highest and tabulate your results.

What is the Predator Release Hypothesis? Explain how it works. What is ONE principle or idea that we studied in this course that can be illustrated using it (other than predation). Explain how the predator release hypothesis fits into that idea.
Suppose that researchers wanted to examine the combined effects of an introduced predator (a trout) and the trematode parasite Ribeiroia on amphibian populations. To do this, they established frog populations in each of 40 artificial ponds. Each pond was assigned at random to one of four treatments (10 ponds per treatment): 1) neither trout or parasites were added to the pond (the "No trout, no parasite" treatment); 2) no trout were added but parasites were added ("No trout, parasite added"); 3) trout were added but parasites were not added ("Trout added, no parasite"); and 4) both trout and parasites were added ("Trout added, parasite added"). Each pond contained refugia where tadpoles could avoid attack by trout, to avoid fish predators driving frog populations to extinction in an artificial pond, unlike what typically occurs in a natural pond. After two breeding seasons, the researchers estimated the density of frogs in each pond. The results are shown in the table and the figure.…
https://media.hhmi.org/biointeractive/click/lionfish-invasion/introduction.html This section starts explaining how scientists use the population survey data that are collected to model how the lionfish population changes over time. These models enable scientists to make predictions about population changes, which is an important element of developing plans for managing the lionfish population You'll be using the discrete-time logistic model that is described on this page in future parts of the case study, so make sure to carefully read through the explanation of this mathematical model. Even if you don't have a strong math background, this case study walks through the equation step by step. 6)Which of the following are constant terms in the discrete-time logistic model? choose all that apply a)Nt b)ΔN c)t d)K e)Δt f)rmax,d g)None of these
Lake Mendota is a lake with high levels of nutrient input from agriculture that has the potential to fuel blooms of phytoplankton. In 2009 the invasive spiny water flea Bythotrephes (native to Europe and Asia) was first detected in the lake. In the figure, the food web for Lake Mendota prior to the invasion is on the left, and after the invasion on the right. Bythotrephes is a more effective predator of the herbivorous zooplankton Daphnia than the native planktivorous perch (represented by the large red arrows between Bythotrephes and Daphnia), and perch consume Bythotrephes at much lower rates than they do Daphnia (represented by the small red arrows between perch and Bythotrephes).

7) The following data has been obtained from the coastal haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) fishery of Maine. The fishing season was divided into 10 periods. Period Catch per Period 1 208 2 195 3 168 4 132 5 91 6 80 7 63 8 56 9 48 10 33 It was also recorded that five fishing trawlers were in operation during each period of the fishing season. Question: What was the size of the haddock population originally available to the fishery?
In this question, why B is correct and C is wrong? Bighorn sheep are an iconic species in the western United States, however, their population size is drastically lower than it once was historically. These sheep inhabit montane patches surrounded by urban and agricultural landscapes. Accordingly, bighorn sheep can be considered a metapopulation. Wildlife managers would like to increase the patch occupancy of bighorn sheep. Which of the following would be the most effective conservation/restoration strategy? None of these statements is an effective conservation strategy. Increase patch size and quality, and decrease the distance between patches. Increase patch size and the distance between patches, and decrease patch quality. Increase the distance between patches and patchy quality, and decrease patch size. Decrease patch size, distance between patches, and patch quality.

Milkfish (Chanos chanos) is the only fish species that belongs to Family Chanidae which is nearly related to tuna and salmon due to its fusiform shape and migratory nature (FAO 2009; BFAR 2020). It is widely distributed in the Indo-pacific region and abundantly collected in the South and Southeast Asian, and West Pacific Regions (BFAR 2010). Milkfish is one of the most commercially important fish species in the Philippines (Samson 1984). Milkfish reach sexual maturity (approximately 1.5m length and 20 kg weight) in five years in large floating cages, but may take 8-10 years in ponds and concrete tanks (FAO 2009). In the natural environment, milkfish populations near the coral reefs spawn during warm months of the year while populations near the equator spawn year-round. First-time spawners produce fewer eggs but larger and older broodstocks produce as many eggs as wild adults of similar size. Broodstocks of about 8 years old and about 6 kg produce 3-4 million eggs. Juvenile and adults…
Which statments are correct? Question 25 options: Species diversity tends to increase with evapostranspiration Species diversity tends to increase with when parasitism is low Species diversity tends to increase with island area Species diversity tends to be higher when disturbance frequency is low Species diversity tends to increase with decreasing latitude
Support this with evidence: In this food web model, plants A, B and C are the autotrophic organisms that serve as the producers of the food web model. The herbivores A, B and C serve as the primary consumers meanwhile the omnivores A and B serve as the secondary consumers of this model. Then, the last level is the top predator. To describe the model formulated, the populations of these organisms, in a particular ecosystem, was recorded over a period of 61 days. It is observed that at Day 0, the plant populations are the highest, which is around 5000. The herbivore populations are found in a range of 2000-3000 and the omnivore populations can be seen to be below 1000. With gradual increase in the number of days, we can see here that the food chain is coming into play. The green plants are being consumed by the herbivores, leading to fluctuations in the plant populations. The herbivores are, in turn, being consumed by the omnivores. We can see that with increasing time, only…
Oaks in California are suffering from a phenomenon called sudden oak death (SOD). This has the potential to convert oak-dominated communities to communities made up of mostly grasses and smaller plants. How would this change the abundances of the tick species described in the article? Make a prediction for each of the three most abundant species, and describe the specific results in this article that justify your prediction.
