Set Problem 2 Biocore 301, Fall 2007 15 Points, Due in Lecture October 3 1. You are conducting a mark-recapture experiment to estimate the size of the rabbit population in the Biocore Prairie. You use a live trap to capture a group of 55 rabbits and mark each with an orange leg band. Next day, you set your traps again and catch 60 rabbits, 35 of which have the leg band. What is your estimate of population size? (Be sure to show your work) A. B. Name a circumstance under which your estimate overestimates the population size. Explain. C. Name a circumstance under which your estimate underestimates population size. Explain 2. Continuing the interview started in Worksheet 3, the conservation biologist working on a plan to protect the gray whale (Eschrichitus robustus), has a few more questions to test your understanding of the exponential and logistic population growth models. A. What is the difference between r and rmax? B. Which two demographic processes are considered in both the exponential and logistic population growth models? C. What is meant by the assumption of the exponential models that "growth is continuous"? D. After reviewing your responses, the biologist asks you some questions about the whales. Calculate r for the whale population, knowing that the average annual per capita birth rate between 1950 and 2000 was 0.13, and the annual per capita death rate over the same period was 0.105. ( Be sure to give units for r) E. In 1973, the population was estimated to be 15,000 individuals. If the population was growing at an exponential rate, what is your estimate of the size of the population in 1998? Show your work, and state any assumptions that you make. F. In 2002, the population size was estimated to be 21, 000. Assuming that your estimate of the population size in 1998 was correct, what might you conclude about the growth rate of the whale population? G. What, if anything might you conclude the about carrying capacity of the habitat? Explain your reasoning. 3 Assume that you are employed by the federal government in an agency in charge of regulating the importation of plant and animal species from abroad. One of your duties is to set up guidelines for determining whether or not an imported species would likely become a problem for native plants and animals, should it be allowed to enter the country. The guidelines need to be based on characteristics of the species you are considering that you can measure, either in the field or in a lab. Name two distinctly different species characteristics (or characteristics displayed following introduction) that you could use to predict if a species has pest potential in one or more parts of the country. For each characteristic, explain how and why it might be used to make predictions Characteristic 1________________________________________________ Explanation Characteristic 2________________________________________________ Explanation 4. Kevin is studying prairie grasshoppers. As part of his project, he conducted an inventory of the grasshopper species found in several sites in the Midwest. Below is a portion of his data: Species A B C D E Site 1 Number of Ind. 500 600 20 500 800 Site 2 Number of Ind. 0 550 15 0 500 Site 3 Number of Ind. 0 750 30 150 650 A. Fill in the following values Site 1 Species Richness Shannon-Weiner Index Value B. Which site is the most diverse? Explain Site 2 Site3 C Both Species A and C are considered to be rare. Explain. Use these graphs to answer Questions 5 and 6 below: 5. Which curve (A, B, C, D, or E) matches a human population in an undeveloped country where child mortality rates are high? Explain. 6. A species of insect must shed its skin 3 4 times during its lifetime. For a few hours immediately after shedding, the insect is vulnerable to predation. Which curve best matches this insect? Explain.
