Answer:

The best estimate of population density of this particular Octopus spieces is (TOTAL POPULATION OF THE OCTOPUS)/(TOTAL AREA OF LAND)

Population density = (15/6) Octopus per hectare

Explanation:

To estimate the population density of a spiece in a particular area of land, we count the total number of the specie in the area and divide the total number by the area of the sampling region.

Above, the marine ecologist counts the number of octopus in three different intertidal regions that are each two hectares. The octopus counts are 7, 2, and 6 respectively.

Therefore, the total number of Octopus is 7 + 2 + 6 making 15. The regions are 2 hectares each. Since there are three of the intertidal regions, the total area is 2 x 3(6 hectares).

Therefore, Population density = (15/6) Octopus per hectare

Temka [501]

There have be found some fossils of ancient remains over the years. What the fossils from Atapuerca revealed about the hominins living in Europe at this time is below:

  • The Skull is known to show Interbreeding that took place with neandertals and their relatively healthy population.

  • The Fragment shows that there was a possibility of cannibalism in that area.

It shows that possible cannibalism took place as there were Cutmarks on various hominin bones found at Atapuerca mirror.

The relatively healthy population was found out through the study of the dentition of the Atapuerca hominins by anthropologists. It gave them a view into their diet and overall health.

The interbreeding with the Neandertals was shown through the Nuclear DNA that was gotten from bones and teeth of bones found at Sima de los Huesos
