(Multpl, 2015). Back in the early times of this country it wouldn’t be unusual for families to have ten or more…

1. In cohort 1, the females have a lower survivorship curve, as indicated in graph 1. Moreover, around half of the population was dead in the 60-69 range. This makes the graph look somewhat close to a type 2 curve, but overall more similar to the type 1. In cohort 2, the graph (graph 2) shows the males and females having around the same curve early on, but then the males drop steeply. Although there is a definite curve in the two genders, the males appear to be closer to a type 2 than the…

The world population is projected to reach 9.6 billion by 2050 according to United Nation and along with it is the concern for sustainability (1).

(a) The Paramecium population in the lab (graph a) appears to have a logistical population growth. Visually, the data and trend line of the graph create an S-shaped curve, which is the shape of a logistical population growth. A logistical population growth is a population growth that initially occurs at a constant rate of increase over time, but then levels out as the carrying capacity of the environment is approached. For 10 days the population increases at a steady rate. However, after day 10…
