Show every step of exponential and logistic reasoning -- do not skip to the final answer.
- 1.A population of 40 doubles every year with unlimited resources. Find the population after 5 years.
- 2.A logistic growth table shows a population leveling off near 250 individuals after growing quickly at first. Approximately what is the carrying capacity?
- 3.Classify as density-dependent or density-independent: a hurricane destroying habitat regardless of how many animals live there.
- 4.Classify as density-dependent or density-independent: a disease that spreads faster as animals are packed more tightly together.
- 5.Explain what happened during your bean-and-food logistic growth simulation, describing the shape of growth you observed round by round.
