QuestionAnswer
The _______ Rate of Increase (r) determines the ______ size of a population based on current factors Intrinsic; Future
The Intrinsic Rate of Increase is written as ____ r
Immigration, Emigration, Number of births, number of death and n (current number of population) are all influences on the Intrinsic Rate of ______, aka ____ Increase; r
Individuals ENTERING the population from other populations Immigration
Individuals LEAVING the population to go to other populations Emigration
n= the _______ number in the population Current
To calculate r, the Intrinsic Rate of Increase the formula is: ___ - ___ / n # Births; # Deaths
If r is positive, the population is expected to ____ over time Grow
If r is negative, the population is expected to _____ over time Decline
The Exponential Growth model will occur if a population is exhibiting its _______ potential Biotic
Biotic Potential means a population is at ______ growth under _____ conditions Maximum; Ideal
When the number of individuals increases in a population, their ability to reproduce increases, creating an _______ growth curve Exponential
Biotic potential is NOT ________ because the populations will always meet environment _______ Realistic; Resistance
Examples of environment resistances that prevent biotic potential include depletion of _________ such as: food supply, habitat, new predators Resources
An example of resource depletion was the _____ on St. Pauls Island where they overgrazed and damaged the environment causing them to ____ off Reindeer; Die
Two types of population growth model include _______ Growth and ______ Growth Exponential; Logistic
Logistic Growth is what ______ happens Really
The Logistic Growth is shown by an "___" curve S
If a population is small, population increase is ______ because there are fewer individuals to reproduce Slower
If a population is large, population increase happens ______ because large populations have more newborns so the population increases rapidly Rapidly
