2.2 Cards Flashcards
What factors go into population growth
births, immigration
deaths, emigration
what is an inequality that shows population growth
B+I>D+E
what are some of the variables in population growth
r, N, dN/dt, t, N(subscript)0, k
what does N stand for
population size
what does r stand for
maximum growth rate per capita
what does dN/dt stand for
population growth rate
what does t stand for
time
what does k stand for
carrying capacity
what does N(subscript) stand for
initial population size
what is exponential growth
growth without limiting factors
what is logistic growth
growth with limiting factors
how do you calculate r
growth/individual
(births-deaths)/ N(subscript)0
maximum sustainable yield
1/2 K the slop of the logistic curve has an inflection point
what is carrying capacity
maximum population size an environment can support over the longterm
how to calculate exponential
dN/dt=rn
(ideal conditions)
