Which of the following would necessarily decrease the density of a population in a given habitat?
1. | Natality> mortality | 2. | Immigration >emigration |
3. | Mortality and emigration | 4. | Natality and immigration |
In 2005, for each of the 14 million people present in a country, 0.028 were born and 0.008 died during the year. Using the exponential equation, the number of people present in 2015 is predicted as:
1. | 25 million | 2. | 17 million |
3. | 20 million | 4. | 18 million |
The consequences of high population density of a population will include all except:
1. toxic waste accumulation
2. an increase in mortality
3. ignorance of overabundant prey by the predators
4. a reduction in reproduction
