Question

A population of 200 deer is reintroduced to a forest after many years of being absent. This population is tracked for the next 50 years. Based on the following data of the first 50 years, and assuming that there is no resource limitation, how many deer would you expect to find in this population 60 years after their reintroduction? Year # of deer 0 200 10 280 20 400 30 560 40 800 50 1,120 1,400 deer 1,600 deer 1,800 deer 2,000 deer

Step 1

We can do this by dividing the population of each year by the population of the previous year. For example, in the 10th year, the population is 280 and in the 0th year, the population is 200. So, the growth rate is 280/200 = 1.4. We can do the same for the Show more…
