Which of the following correctly describes the interactions between T. castaneum and the parasite.

The parasite decreases the population density of beetles in each culture dish.

The parasite increases the population density of beetles in each culture dish.

The parasite has no effect on the population density of the beetles.

What is the rate of change for the population grown without a parasite from day 200 to day 400?

a loss of approximately 30 beetles/200 days

a loss of approximately 15 beetles/200 days

show a decline after an increase

display populations that have reached carrying capacity

does not depend on the numbe rof resources

Which of the following statements would NOT be true of a population that is remaining at its carrying capacity?

The number of predators in the area is decreasing due to a viral disease.

Birth rate is equal to the death rate.

Immigration and emigration are equal.

Temperature and rainfall patterns are consistent.

Predator population lags behind prey population because:

Increase in predators leads to decrease in prey

Increase in predators leads to increase in prey

Increase in predators leads to decrease in producers

The carrying capacity of an environment for a particular species at a particular time is determined by the

supply of the most limited resources

number of individuals in the species.

distribution of the population.

reproductive potential of the species.
