Type 2 survivorship curve?
A type 2 survivorship curve implies a roughly constant mortality rate across all age groups of the species.
What does curve mean?
curve means Bend
Which curve best describes survivorship in marine mollusks?
a Type III curve -The greatest mortality is experienced early on in life, with relatively low rates of death for those surviving this bottleneck. This type of curve is characteristic of species that produce a large number of offspring
What is a detailed time line of health improvement for your lungs and overall health after quitting smoking?
seven years Seven years after quitting smoking, the overall mortality curve of a former smoker levels out to be equal to (to have the same slope as) a lifetime non-smoker. This is actually somewhat misleading. Many people will read this statement and think "Seven years after I quit smoking my mortality will be the same as if I never smoked." Absolutely not true. The slopes of the mortality curves are equal after 7 years, but the former smoker is going to have a higher mortality. It would be good to have a picture here. The smokers' curve is going to be higher at every age due to the damage done to the lungs. If you plot mortality on the Y axis and age on the X axis, you will have two parallel lines, with the smoker curve on top, showing a higher mortality at every age.
Which survivor ship curve would represent frogs?
A type III survivorship curve is a good fit for frogs. The curve shows a high mortality rate early in life with a far lower mortality rate later in adult life. The curve is typical for species that have large numbers of offspring. Many species produce large numbers of eggs although some produce only one egg at a time. The morality rates are likely to vary depending on the number of eggs produced.
What does high mortality mean?
High mortality rates mean high death rates. For example: A mortality rate of 4 of every 10 persons means 4 people of every 10 people -- die. High mortality rate = high death rate.
What does mortality in research studies mean?
For statistical research studies mortality is defined as the dropping-out of subjects over time.
What does a skull in a spade mean?
A skull in a spade symbolizes death and mortality. It is often used as a warning or reminder of our own mortality.
Is it true that a normal distribution curve is symmetric about the mean?
yup, it's a bell curve
What are the properties of a standard normal curve?
It is a normal curve with mean = 0 and variance = 1.
What does the curve of thumbs mean?
The curve of your thumb is the part where it looks rounded, at the base of your thumb.
What is motal?
If you mean Child Mortality, then that is how many children die.
