A scientist is studying the population of a particular species of beetle in an ecosystem. The beetles currently have an estimate

d population of 11,500 individuals on a wildlife preserve of 115 hectares. (One hectare is equal to 2.47 acres of land.) The scientist calculates the carrying capacity at 14,600 individuals.
Part A
Factoring a death rate from natural causes and predation, the beetle population increases approximately 5% each year. Use the Table button to create a table showing the estimated population for each year, starting with the current population and stopping when you’ve reached or exceeded the carrying capacity.

Answer/Explanation:

Given an estimated beetle population of 11,500, of which it is estimated to increase approximately by 5% each year, we can calculate the estimated population for each year as follows:

<u>Year                       Calculation         Est. Population</u>

1st yr (current yr)                                   11,500

2nd yr                     11,500*105%          12,075

3rd yr                      12,075*105%         12,679

4th yr                      12,679*105%          13,313

5th yr                      13,313*105%           13,979

<u>6th yr                      13,979*105%          </u><u>14,678</u>

The above is how the table would like showing the estimated population for each year.

After a dye diffuses uniformly throughout a glass of water, the dye molecules are no longer moving. True or false?
Anton [14]
The answer is false, liquid molecules continue to move even after the concentration is uniform.

Diffusion happens because there’s a concentration gradient between the dye and the water, therefore dye molecules moves to the water area. But note that this is only the net movement of the molecules, which means, even if more molecules are moving towards water, there are still some dye molecules that are moving in the opposite direction.

So, after the concentration is equal, the motion of the dye molecules does not stop, they still move in random directions, but there’s no net movement instead, as there’s no concentration gradient. Remember molecules are always moving in all directions , it just depends on whether there’s a net movement or not. If there’s no net movement, the amount of molecules moving to each and every direction is always equal.
