AP Population Ecology

The pattern of spacing among individuals within the boundaries of the population.

• dispersion

• density

• immigration

• survivorship

New individuals move into a population.

• immigration

• emigration

• migration

• survivorship

Individuals gather in patches, influenced by resource availability and behavior.

• clumped dispersion

• random dispersion

• uniform dispersion

• isolated dispersion

Individuals are evenly distributed, influenced by interactions between organisms in the population.

• uniform dispersion

• random dispersion

• clumped dispersion

• isolated dispersion

Survivorship curve represented with low death rates during early and middle life, then an increase among older age groups, a good example are humans.

• type I

• type II

• type III

• type IV

Number of individuals per unit area or volume.

• denisty

• dispersion

• survivorship

• immigration

When individuals in a population move out or away.

• emigration

• immigration

• migration

• dispersion

Processes that add individuals to a population.

• birth and immigration

• death and emigration

Position of each individual is independent of other individuals, occurs in the absence of strong attractions or repulsion's.

• random dispersion

• clumped dispersion

• uniform dispersion

• isolated dispersion

An age-specific summary of the survival pattern of a population, it is best made by following the fate of a COHORT.

• life table

• death table

• birth table

• migration table
