1. The effects of disease in a population would be considered density dependent.
True
False
2.You discover a new species of salamander and after watching it through mating season, you determine that females lay between 1000-1500 eggs at a time on average. Based on this information and your knowledge of life history traits, you predict that the species also:
A. has low levels of parental care.
B. has a low risk of mortality at a young age.
C. reaches sexual maturity at a late age.
D. is very long lived.
E. All of the above.
3. According to the logistic growth equation:
the number of individuals added per unit time is greatest when N is close to zero.
the per capita growth rate (r) increases as N approaches K.
population growth is zero when N equals K.
the population grows exponentially when K is small.
the birth rate (b) approaches zero as N approaches K.

Question 1 (2pts): You are a biologist studying two species of lizards. Lizard Alays eggs in large clutches of 20-50. These clutches are buried and the lizard does not return to tend them. When the young hatch, they suffer high rates of predation. The few that survive grow to adulthood. Lizard B lays only two eggs. It tends to a nest until the young hatch and carries them on its back until they grow large enough to fend for themselves....
