Document Summary
Clicker question: c; treatment a is the population, density depended cant be eradicated (removed, destroyed): a density dependent control treatment, an ineffective density independent control treatment, an effective density density independent control treatment. Population determines if treatment is effective or not it decreases population, density dep decreasing carrying capacity, that how population is regulated without killing, Carrying capacity is decreased with density depended treatment and eradication is only possible with density independent treatment. Sex and age structure (males vs females) Fecundity (# of eggs produced per female) Fertility (% of eggs that produce viable offspring) Production (# of offspring produced by a population) 3 types of spatial distributions: clumped, even, random. Clumped: not spread evenly, they are clumps within the environment,
