In the temperate latitudes, a continental climate is usually characterized by a large annual range of air temperature (hot summers and cold winters) and considerable daily variations in air temperature. A continental climate differs from a marine climate in having a low mean annual temperature, low humidity, and dustier air.
Population density is the aspect of population ecology of the black-tailed prairie dog does this statement describe.
Explanation:
Population density is the number of organisms are there in per unit area. It is used to measure geographical area occupied by organisms and its statistics.
In population ecology the structure, dynamics and contribution of population of species is studied. The idea of species distribution is studied in it.
The population density determines the number of species or members of particular population are present is a particular area.
An area of low density population will have more resources and more area per organism and less competition for resources and vice versa for high density population.
Prairie dogs have 12 adults per hectare of area this tells the population density of the rodents.
The troposphere is shallowest or narrowest at the poles, and deepest or thickest at the equator. At the geographic North and South Poles, the troposphere reaches only 4 miles high, while at the equator, it extends nearly 12 miles high.
