Document Summary
We caution you to use the key as sparingly as possible. Answer keys offer a false sense of security. Understanding why an answer makes sense is very different from being able to reach that answer yourself (as you will be expected to do on an exam). Population b has a per capita birth rate of 0. 7 and a per capita death rate of 0. 8. Population c has a per capita birth rate of 0. 2 and a per capita death rate of 0. 1. In 2003, there were 194 nesting whooping cranes in the western north american flock. How do you know: in 1947, there were 40,000 nesting kemps ridley sea turtles on a particular mexican beach. Assume that these numbers are representative of the population of kemps ridley sea turtles. Assume that is 0. 9 and is reasonably constant. In this example, time is measured in years.
