Answer: The appropriate information that will be used to fill the blanks includes the following respectively:
-1.7
- increased
-70%
- 0.5
- decreased
- 50%
Explanation:
The green (topmost) data point at June 2011 shows a proportional change of about 1.7, which means that the native fish population INCREASED by about 70 percent when 95 percent of the lionfish were removed. In contrast, the orange data point at June 2011 shows a proportional change of about 0.5, which means that the native fish population DECREASED by about 50 percent when only a quarter of the lionfish were removed (a result that was almost the same as when none of the lionfish were removed).
The native fishes are being haunted by the lion fish, from the results, removing just few of the invasive lion fish will not make a difference. In other to help the native fish survive, many of the lion fish has to be removed.

1. Answer: C
Explanation: Species that are inclined to clumping means they are more likely to cooperate in tasking such as gathering food. However, evenly distributed population means there is competition between individuals hence the need to their own space and territory from the other individual.
2. Answer: B
Explanation: While the clumped up populations may be inclined to cooperate in tasks such as food gathering, such distribution results to increases intraspecies competition especially during scarcity. This is because the individuals are close together – which is also advantageous during mating season.
3. Answer: A
Explanation: Type 3 survivorship curve is characterized by a high mortality rate early in the life of the species which gradually progresses to a low mortality rate for the individuals that survive the early stages of life. These species, therefore, bear a lot of offspring most of which will not make to adulthood.
4. Answer: B
Explanation: If the death rate of a population is higher than the birth+ immigration rate, then the population must be decreasing. This can be demonstrated by a growth curve of a population such as that of bacteria. The population starts decreasing due to increased competition for reduced resources after reaching carrying capacity - depicted by the stationary phase.
"An organism in which the two copies of the gene are identical — that is, have the same allele — is called homozygous for that gene. An organism which has two different alleles of the gene is called heterozygous."
