The Arizona Forest occupies 87,174,334,009 sq. miles land that cater different kinds of species. One of which were the leopards. As of 2019, the total population of leopards is 26,753. Due to severe changes of the environment, there is an average of 571 leopard’s dies while only 255 were given birth each year. In 1950, their population is 63% higher from the current population. Calculate for: Population Growth rate Select one: a. 244.26% b. 244. 25% c. 244. 28% d. 244.29%

A few plant-eating salamanders manage to float on a log to a large island in the Pacific that did not have any other salamander species previously. The salamanders find the island has abundant plants for food and no predators. On average, a salamander has four offspring per year and lives for one year. Refer to the equation for the logistic growth model if you were modeling salamnder population growth with this logistic growth equation, during the first few years, a) N<K b) N=K c) N>K d) there is no relationship between N and K
In 2017, 16 bison were released into Elk Island National Park. Within the next five years, 42 more bison will be released into the 1,200 km2 area. During the study period, it is expected that 45 calves will be born and 13 bison will die or be removed from the study area. What is the expected per capita growth rate of the bison population during this study period? Express your answer rounded to two decimal places. If the population is decreasing indicate this with a negative sign.
Zebra mussels are an aquatic invasive species that are threatening the diversity and abundance of native species in the lake ecosystems of Alberta. Sylvan Lake is a beautiful recreational lake located in central Alberta. It has a total area of 43 km2. If the population of zebra mussels is estimated to be 128 mussels/200 km2, calculate the size of the zebra mussel population in Sylvan Lake. Express your answer as a value rounded to one decimal place. Answer
African elephants are threatened by poachers, who kill the elephants for their tusks. Both male and female elephants can grow tusks. There are some elephants that are tuskless (do not grow tusks). In the elephant population of Gorongosa National Park, the number of female elephants was monitored for many years. The graphs show the total female elephant population and the percent of tuskless females in that population from 1970 to 2015. Which of the following describes the trend in the female elephant population from 1970 to 1995 ? The overall population decreased, and the proportion without tusks increased. Answer A: The overall population decreased, and the proportion without tusks increased. A The overall population decreased, and the proportion without tusks decreased. Answer B: The overall population decreased, and the proportion without tusks decreased. B The overall population increased and then decreased, and the proportion without tusks…
During 24 months, a population of 5,000 prairie dogs experienced 6 500 births and 5 560 deaths. Forty two prairie dogs left the population, and 85 prairie dogs joined the population. Calculate the growth of the prairie dog population during the 24 months. Calculate the per capita growth rate of the prairie dog population and the per capita growth rate per year. Show all work and explanation.
The per capita birth (b) and death (d) rates are measured for two populations across a range of population sizes in the attached figure. The equation for exponential growth rate is dN/dt=rN where the per capita growth rate is r=(b-d). The equation for logistic population growth rate is dN/dt=rN(1-N/K). With logistic growth, r varies as a function of the population size with density-dependent birth and/or death rates. See attached image If the death rate decreased, what would happen to the population trajectory for population A? a) increase faster b) increase slower c) decrease faster d) decrease slower
If the population of 150 squirrels at UofL has 15 births this year, what is the per capita birth rate? - 0.1 squirrels/yr/squirrel If the population of 150 squirrels at UofL has 10 deaths this year, what is per capita death rate? - 0.067 squirrels/yr/squirrel Calculate the intrinsic rate of increase for this squirrel population, using your answers to the questions above. - 0.03 squirrels/yr/squirrel Between having plenty of shelter in the trees and scavenging through the campus garbage, UofL squirrels have seemingly unlimited resources. Using the information you've calculated so far, determine the growth increment for the coming year for the UofL squirrel population. - 4.5 squirrels/yr Let's say that, after you calculated your predictions for unlimited growth of the UofL squirrel populations in the questions above, a bad storm comes through campus and wipes out half the trees! Now, the growth of the population of squirrels becomes limited. There are still 150 squirrels, but the…
The moose population in Northern Alberta is estimated to be around 11, 800. During the year, there were 5330 births, 4809 deaths, 12 immigrations and 45 emigrations. Calculate the per capita growth rate. Express your answer as a value between 0 and 1 rounded to two decimal places. If the population is decreasing indicate this with a negative sign.
It is estimated that approximately 20,000 grizzly bears live in Western Canada, Yukon, and Northwest Territories. Currently, there are 146 grizzly bears remaining in Jasper National Park in an area of 7500 km2. Calculate the density of the grizzly bear population in Jasper Park. Express your answer as a value rounded to two decimal places. Units = grizzly bears/km2
