Which set of values for the intrinsic rate of increase, finite rate of
increase, and net reproductive rate could describe the same growing
population?
(Note: you should not need to do any math to figure this one out. Just think
through general interpretations of each parameter)
Or = 3.0, A = 0.22, RO = 0.5
r = 0.22, A = 1.25, RO = 3.0
r =
= 0.22, A = -0.14, RO = 0.5
r = -0.14, A = 0.87, RO = 0.5

Imagine the Paramecium population displayed in Q1 was actually grown
at a sub-optimally low temperature. What effect would you expect
growing the population at a higher temperature (but not so hot as to be
damaging) to have on the pattern of population growth?
The population would reach carrying capacity more slowly (lower r).
Carrying capacity would be increased.
The population would become a source rather than sink
The population would reach carrying capacity faster (higher r).
The population would transition from logistic to exponential growth.
