The population of individuals is growing at a continuous rate. The maximum growth rate is 0.35 and the carrying capacity of the population is 800 individuals. a. If the population size is 20 individuals, find the population growth rate. Show your work.  b.  If the population was nearing the carrying capacity, how would this rate compare to the calculated rate in part a? A  calculation is not required.

Population Growth

R and K Selection

R and K selection are concepts in ecology used to describe traits in the fluctuation of a population or population dynamics. For example, they describe the life-association traits between parent and offspring, such as quantity or number of young ones born at a time, quality of parental care, the age to maturity, and reproductive effort.
