Solution

The correct option is B populationA population is defined as a group of interbreeding individuals of the same species that are living in a given space. A group of population contitutes a community. A biome is a group of community having common characteristics. Ecosystem consists of the interaction among organisms and between organisms and their environment.

Population

Group of interbreeding individuals of the same species, usually living together in a group.

population density

Number of individuals in a population found within a given area or volume.

r-selected species

Species that have a capacity for a high rate of population growth (r). They tend to have short life spans and produce many, usually small, offspring, to which they give little or no parental care or protection. Examples include algae, bacteria, and most insects. Compare K-selected species.

age structure

Distribution of individuals among various age groups in a population.

environmental resistance

All of the limiting factors that act together to limit the growth of a population. See limiting factor.

K-selected species

Species that tend to do well in competitive conditions when their population size is near the carrying capacity (K) of their environment. They tend to have long lifespans, reproduce later in life, and produce few offspring. Examples include elephants, whales, humans, saguaro cacti, and most tropical rain forest trees. Compare r-selected species.

range of tolerance

Range of variations in any physical environment under which a population can survive. See limiting factor.

carrying capacity

Maximum population of a species that a habitat can sustain indefinitely.

survivorship curve

Line graph that shows the percentages of the members of a population surviving at different ages. There are three generalized types of survivorship curves: late loss, early loss, constant loss.

limiting factor

Factor that is particularly important relative to other factors in regulating the growth of a population.

population crash

Dieback of a population that has depleted its supply of resources, exceeding the carrying capacity of its environment. See carrying capacity.

physics

A string passing over a pulley has a $3.80-\mathrm{~kg}$ mass hanging from one end and a $3.15-\mathrm{~kg}$ mass hanging from the other end. The pulley is a uniform solid cylinder of radius $4.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ and mass $0.80 \mathrm{~kg}$. If the bearings of the pulley were frictionless, what would be the acceleration of the two masses?

Verified answer

chemistry

(a) An oxygen molecule absorbs ultraviolet radiation in a transition from its $^{3}\Sigma_{g} ^{-}$ ground electronic state to an excited state that is energetically close to a dissociative $^{3}\Pi_{11}$ state. The absorption band has a relatively large experimental linewidth. Account for this observation. (b) A hydrogen molecule absorbs ultraviolet radiation in a transition from its $^{3} \Sigma _{6}^{-}$ ground electronic state to an excited state that is energetically close to a dissociative $^{1}\Sigma _{10}^{+}$ state. The absorption band has a relatively large experimental linewidth. Account for this observation.

Verified answer

engineering

Knowing that the coordinates of the utility pole are $x_p=46 \mathrm{ft}$ and $y_p=59 \mathrm{ft}$, determine $(a)$ the time elapsed from the first collision to the stop at $P$, (b) the speed of car $A$.

physics

The gauge pressure at the bottom of a cylinder of liquid is $p _ { \mathrm { g } } = 0.40 \mathrm { atm }$ atm. The liquid is poured into another cylinder with twice the radius of the first cylinder. What is the gauge pressure at the bottom of the second cylinder?

What is a group of interbreeding individuals of the same species living in a given area?

A population is defined as a group of interbreeding individuals of the same species that are living in a given space. A group of population contitutes a community. A biome is a group of community having common characteristics.

What is a group of individuals of the same species living in the same area called?

Population: A population is a group of organisms of the same species that live in the same area at the same time. Population ecologists study the size, density, and structure of populations and how they change over time.

What is a localized group of interbreeding individuals called?

Population refers as a group of potentially interbreeding and interacting individuals of the same species living in the same geographical place and time having common gene pool (Daniel 2007).

Is a group of interbreeding individuals?

A species is often defined as a group of individuals that actually or potentially interbreed in nature.
