question
After 1865 the number of Snowshoe hares increase and decreasing with the Lynx so both are on the same path
answer
When the number of snowshoe hares is high, what happens to the number of lynxes? Use actual data from the graph to support your observations.

question
When the predators start dying out that means their food source is running out as well.

question
Since Lynx's are carnivores their food source easiest to get. It only resorts to a Preditor - Prey relationship.

answer
Which other relationship in Model 2 is similar to that between the Shark and the Remora?
Unlock the answer
question
The one we choose was the Dog & Flea. The reason why we choose Parasitism for it was because parasitism means one organism benefits and the other is harmed. The Dog gets infections & rashes from the Flea, while the Flea gets what it needs, so in the end, the Dog is getting harmed in the process.
answer
With your group, choose one of the organism pairs from Model 2 and justify why you categorized the relationship as you did.

question
P.aurelia grows larger in 20 days
answer
P.caudatum and P.aurelia are both species of Paramecium, a microscopic protozoan. P.caudatum is the larger of the two species. When grown separately, which of the two species reaches a larger realtive population size after 20 days?
Unlock the answer
question
They would both increase because they are not fighting w/eachother.
answer
When grown separately is there a substantial diffrence in the relative population size of the two types of paramecia after 20 days?
Unlock the answer
question
P.caudatum is affected when grown together
answer
Which population of species of Paramecium is more affected when the two species are grown together?
Unlock the answer
question
When two organisms are together they compete with each other to get the resources to survive - ( just like the hunger games ;)
answer
Considering that P.caudatum is 50% larger in size than P.aurelia, developed a hypothesis with your group to explain why interspecific competiton has an effect on the relative population size of P.caudatum.

question
8.5 weeks beacuse it extends even more.
answer
When the number of individuals is increased to 160, what is the effect on the time taken for metamorphosis to occur?
Unlock the answer
question
Because there is less resources (interspecific Competition) the more organism there are (same species) the more resourse decline
