Answer:
When the patch occupancy rate (c) equals the patch extinction rate (e), patch occupancy (P) is 0
Explanation:
According to Levin's model (1969):
<em>dP/dt = c - e</em>
where P represents the proportion of occupied patches.
<em>c</em><em> </em>and <em>e </em>are the local immigration and extinction probabilities per patch.
Thus, the rate of change of P, written as dP/dt, tells you whether P will increase, decrease or stay the same:
- if dP/dt >0, then P is increasing with time
- if dP/dt <0, then P is decreasing with time
- if dP/dt = 0, then P is remaining the same with time.
The rate dP/dt is calculated by the difference between colonization or occupancy rate (<em>c</em>) and extinction rate (<em>e</em>).
c is then calculated as the number of successful colonizations of unoccupied patches as a proportion of all available patches, while e is the proportion of patches becoming empty. Notice that P can range between 0 and 1.
As a result, if the patch occupancy rate (c) equals the patch extinction rate (e), then patch occupancy P equals to 0.
D is the right answer. Quantitative data is information that is conducted from measurements and written down with numbers.I hope i helped you!
The growth rate of Earth is decreasing, as the birth rate is the main source. The death rate is mostly abortion which tyes in with birth rate. Much types of emigration have been seen. Mostly Asians, because most asian countries only want the boys and not the girls. Trump is thinking of making a wall to stop mexican immigration.
