This means that once an environmental problem is identified, they have to be prioritized. In general, this is done using scientific valuation of the relative risk to human health and the ecology of a given environmental hazard - a procedure known as: A. Biodiversity B. Public Goods C.

- The carrying capacity (K) is the maximum population size that can be supported or sustained by a given environment. Which of the following statements about the carrying capacity is NOT true? Select one: a. We can think of K as some "average" value that a given environment can support. b. Environmental fluctuations cause the carrying capacity to fluctuate over time. c. Once a population reaches its carrying capacity, the size of the population remains constant. d. When a population overshoots K, individuals die due to lack of resources.arrow_forwardA small lake is capable of supporting both bluegill and smallmouth bass. These two bony fish species compete for similar food resources. The carrying capacity of this lake for bluegill (K,) is 1,500 and for bass (Kz) is 500. After some careful measurement, we find that a is 0.5 and that ß is 0.25. We stock the lake with 250 bluegill and 750 bass. Over time, will both species be able to co-exist? If not, which one will be driven to extinction in this lake? If so, approximately how many of each species will be present? Please show math on paper and Draw Graph on paper!

Mr. Trout, the owner of the fishing resort on the lake, wants to increase the number of salmon available for his clients to catch fishing. He plans to stock the lake with 1,000 more salmon. Explain to Mr. Trout what will happen to the lake and the salmon population if he adds 1,000 extra fisharrow_forward
