Question

What is the growth rate? births = 20 deaths = 10 immigration = 5 emigration = 1

Answer 1

D. 14

Explanation:

The formula to answer this in ody ssey curriculum is in assignment 5 The Study of Ecology, page 3-4 (if printed). Right after the video Population Ecology the next section titled Growth Rate. Gives this formula.

r = (b-d) + (i-e)

Growth rate ? =

(birth rate 20, Minus, death rate 10) = 10 + (immigration 5-emigration 1) = 4

10+4 = 14 growth rate

Answer 2

The growth rate for given set of population is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in question,

births = 20

deaths = 10

immigration = 5

emigration = 1

Growth rate shall be given by following equation -

Growth rate = (Number of births) + (Number of Immigration) - (Number of deaths) - ( Number of emigration)

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

Growth =
`20 + 5 -10 -1\\25 -11\\14\\`

The growth rate for given set of population is 14
