A Hippogriff is a magical beast that had the front legs, wings, and head of a giant eagle and the
body, hind legs and tail of a horse. It is very similar to another magical creature, the Griffin, with the horse rear replacing the lion rear. A slightly different breed of Hippogriffs, living in the Rathlin Island—the northernmost point in Northern Ireland, was known to have a growth rate of 0.2 individuals per individual—year. From an initial population of N0, it grew to 35 individuals after 5 years. After 17 more years, the total population of hippogriffs in Rathlin Island rose to 1588 individuals. Solve for the carrying capacity of Rathlin Island and the initial population of the said specie.

- (a) About how many microorganisms are found in the human intestinal tract? (A typical bacterial length scale is one micron = 106 m. Estimate the intestinal volume and assume bacteria occupy one hundredth of it.) (b) Discuss your answer to part (a). Are these bacteria beneficial, dangerous, or neutral? What functions could they serve?arrow_forwardA certain strain of bacteria will divide itself from 1 to 2 every to [minute]. As a result, its population can be modeled as N (t) = No2. ---(eq 1) N(t) is the population at time t, NO is the population at the beginning = 100, t = time you wait [minute]. You prepare 6 dishes. Each dish contains 100 living bacteria at the beginning. Then you wait for 20 mins, freeze the first dish to stop the bacteria in the dish from growing. Then wait for another 20 mins, freeze the second dish (i.e. the total growth time for the second dish is 40 min). Proceed to the next dish in the similar process until all 6 dishes are done. After counting all the dish, you collect the data between time and population as follow: t(min) N(t) 20 132 220 40 60 311 80 369 100 622 120 836 Find to (the time for bacteria to divide itself).

One such disease, West Nile Virus, is spread primarily by migratory birds. The figure below shows the spread of the virus across the continental United States from 1999 to 2004. San Diego 2004 1 550 mi Minneapolis- 2002 1500 mi New York 1999 1 100 mi Miami 2001 i West Nile Virus was first detected in New York in 1999. Two years later, the virus had spread to Miami, a distance of 1,100 miles at a direction of 7.00° west of south from New York. In 2002, the virus was found in Minneapolis, 1,500 miles at a direction 37.0° west of north from Miami. Finally, the virus arrived in San Diego in 2004, a distance of 1,550 miles at a direction 25.0° south of west. (a) What is the net displacement (in mi) of the virus from 1999 to 2004?
