Question
The per capita growth rate of a population where dispersal is not a factor is expressed as $(a) i+e(b) b-d(c) d N / d t$ (d) $r N(K-N)(\mathrm{e})(K-N) \div K$
Step 1

The per capita growth rate of a population where dispersal is not a factor is expressed as (a) $i+e(b) b-d(c) d N / d t$ (d) $r N(K-N)(\mathrm{e})(K-N) \div K$
In the Population Growth equation, I = N(b - d), the intrinsic rate of population increase is represented by A. I B. N C. b D. (b-d)
According to the logistic growth equation $$ \frac{d N}{d t}=r N \frac{(K-N)}{K} $$ (A) the number of individuals added per unit time is greatest when $N$ is close to zero. (B) the per capita population growth rate increases as $N$ approaches $K$ (C) population growth is zero when N equals $K$. (D) the population grows exponentially when $K$ is small.
