Population Dynamics Jeopardy
A: The maximum number of organisms that can be sustained in a habitat over a specified amount of time
Q: What is the carrying capacity?
A: A measure of growth which is predictable and regular
Q: What is geometric growth?A: The living components of an ecosystem
Q: What are biotic factors?A: A species native to a certain area
Q: What is an indigenous species?
A: A growth rate which becomes more rapid in proportion to population size
Q: What is exponential growth?A: The non-living components of an ecosystem
Q: What are abiotic factors?A: A species not native to an area
Q: What is an exotic species?
A: The natural growth rate of a species in a habitat
Q: What is fecundity?
A: = [(b + i) (d + e) / n x 100
Q: What is the equation for population change?A: Species living in an ecosystem which feed on other organisms
Q: What are consumers?A: D = n/s
Q: What is population density?
A: Clumped, uniform or random
Q: What are population dispersion patterns?
A: The role of the crab in this food web
Q: What is a producer of food for lobsters and a consumer of food such as mussels?
A:Species living in an ecosystem which act as food for other organisms
Q: What are producers?A: A series of interconnected organisms representing energy flow
Q: What is a food web?A: A method of tagging species for tracking
Q: What is the mark/recapture method?
A: The population change of this species: b = 10 i = 2 d = 5 e =1 n = 50
Q: = [(b + i) (d + e) / n x 100 = [(10 + 2) (5 + 1) / 50 x 100 = 6/50 x 100 = 12
A: The tiers in a food web through which energy is passed
Q: What is a trophic level?
