1
Q
Growth related to death, birth, immigration, and emigration.
A
Growth- B+I > D+E
Decay- B+I < D+E
2
Q
Logistic Graph
A
Population raises over time (growth peaking at 1/2 K) until carrying capacity is reached.
3
Q
Exponential Graph
A
Population increases exponentially and infinitely over time.
4
Q
N
A
Population Size
5
Q
N0
A
Initial Population Size
6
Q
r
A
Growth rate per capita
7
Q
dN/dt
A
Growth Rate
8
Q
K
A
Carrying Capacity
9
Q
t
A
Time
10
Q
Density Dependent Factor
A
Factors that affect population size based on population density. For example disease.
11
Q
Density Independent Factor
A
Factors that affect population regardless of population density. For example weather.
12
Q
How does a Logistic Graph change when r is increased/decreased?
A
Increase- Reaches Carrying capacity faster
