Unit 2: Population Ecology Quiz 2 Review

Created by: Mrs. Belcher
Horizontales
This dispersion is when individuals are clustered together.
The movement of individuals INTO an area.
In this type of reproduction, the organism produces a few offspring each year for several years.
This diagram predicts the future growth of a population.
This growth model describes a population that is increasing rapidly. The larger the population gets, the faster it grows.
An organism that feeds upon another living organism.
This is the population size that an environment can support over long periods of time. On a graph, look for where growth levels off.
The scientific study of human populations.
This type of curve on a graph of population growth would suggest exponential growth.
The space that an animal defends against encroachment by other individuals, usually of its own species
The amount by which a population's size changes in a given time.
The number of deaths
This term is used to describe the location of organisms that have been dispersed by the wind.
Verticales
The movement of individuals OUT of an area.
This type of curve on a graph of population growth would suggest logistic growth.
A model of population growth in which growth slows or stops following a period of exponential growth.
Conditions such as shortages of food and living spaces that cause population growth to decrease.
A type of limiting factor that DEPENDS on the density of the population. Ex: competition, disease
The movement of individuals into and out of a population.
These curves show the likelihood of survival at different ages throughout the lifetime of the organism.
A limiting factor that affects all populations in similar ways in spite of the density of the population. Ex: flood, fire
A group of organisms all of the same species and living in the same area at the same time.
The interaction between two different organisms in which one captures and feeds on the other.
The number of births
This type of dispersion is used to describe organisms that are spread as far apart from one another as possible.
This is reproduction in which an organism produces all of its offspring in a single event.
