Answer:

144

Explanation:

Population growth rate refers to the measure of how a population (N) changes over a particular time (t). Hence, it is termed as (dN/dt) where d represents the change.

The logistic population growth rate equation is given as:

dN/dT = rmaxN (K-N/K)

Where; dN/dt = population growth rate

K = carrying capacity of

population

rmax = maximum per capital

growth rate

N = population number

dN/dt = 0.3 × 1200 (2000-1200/2000)

dN/dt = 360 (800/2000)

dN/dt = 360 (0.4)

dN/dt = 144

Hence, the growth rate of the population (dN/dt) is 144

Sparrows with average-sized wings survive severe storms better than those with longer or shorter wings, illustrating
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B) "stabilizing selection".

Explanation:

Stabilizing selection is a type of natural selection at which mean traits are favored by nature instead of extreme values. In this case at which sparrows with average-sized wings survive severe storms better than those with longer or shorter wings illustrates stabilizing selection. It its believed that this type of selection is the most commonly found in nature, since most traits have no extreme values in most of the species.

What happens to the blood pressure when the blood vessels get longer?
liraira [26]

Answer:

:)

Explanation:

The main artery from the heart (aorta) becomes thicker, stiffer, and less flexible. This is probably related to changes in the connective tissue of the blood vessel wall. This makes the blood pressure higher and makes the heart work harder, which may lead to thickening of the heart muscle (hypertrophy).
