he population of Japanese sika deer in central Japan was determined each year from 2005 to 2014. The sika deer population underw

ent logistic growth starting at 26,000 deer in 2005 and stabilized at 58,000 deer between 2012 and 2014. Based on these data, the rmax for this population was determined to be 0.57. Central Japan contains a variety of habitats, including forests and grasslands. Sika deer benefit from the resources in grasslands more than forests; if deforestation occurred, producing more grasslands in the region, the carrying capacity for sika deer population would increase. What would the population size of sika deer be one year after the carrying capacity increased to 70,000 as a result of deforestation

Answer:

The population would grow to 63,667 deer in a year, and the growth rate would decrease the following year.

Explanation:

Sika deer population : starting at 26000 in 2005

                                     stabilized at 58000 between 2012 and 2014

                                      rmax = 0.57

The population size of Sika deer be one year after the carrying capacity increased to 70000 as a result of deforestation

carrying capacity (k) = 70000

population size ( N ) = 58000

max growth(rmax) = 0.57

To determine the growth

dN/dt = rmax N [ (K-N) / K ]  ---------- (1)

insert the given value into the formula above

dN / dt = 0.57 * 58000 [ 12000 / 70000 ]

           = 33060 [12000 / 70000 ]

           = 5667

The increase in population = 5667 + 58000 = 63667

What do you notice is the main difference between the structure of the connective tissues and the structure of the epithelium? m
FinnZ [79.3K]

The connective tissues and the epithelial tissue differ in their structure in the way their cells are organized. The cell of the epithelial tissue are organized in a closed-packed pattern, while the cells of connective tissue are organized in spread out pattern. Moreover, the connective tissues has blood vessels, but the epithelial tissue does not.

The epithelial tissues serve the purpose of protection. Protective layering is formed by the epithelial tissues in the body. The connective tissue such as bone provides support to the body. The blood vessel connectivity helps in the transfer of the newly formed blood cells.

The appearance of a person is determined by the tissues and other components. The skeletal determines the basic structure of the person. The epithelial tissues give more specificity to the figure of a person. The fats helps in determining the shape of the eyes and cheeks.

The fat in the cheeks is supposed to help the new born infants to suckle and chew. Moreover, it provides padding to the temporalis muscle while chewing. The fat behind the eyes helps in preventing damage to the eyes which may be caused if they rub with the bones of the skull.

It will be hard to open and close one's mouth if the temporalis muscle of a person is damaged. This will make forming words properly difficult. The damage to orbicularis oculi will make the blinking extremely difficult. The facial expressions will be distorted in such cases. The damage to the orbicularis oris will make the movement of the mouth difficult, which will cause poor articulation.
