Birthrate means the number of births in a population. The definition of population is all members of the same species in one area. The more living things that are born increases the population. It does so by adding more to an ecosystem and/or a community.

How does the birth rate compare to the death rate of a population whose size remains constant?

The difference between the two is 'population growth' if it is a positive number or 'population decline' if it is negative.


If a population of bacteria is in steady state does that mean no bacteria are dying?

No, steady state in a bacterial population means that the birth rate equals the death rate, resulting in a stable population size. Bacteria are still dying in a steady state, but the rate of death is balanced by the rate of reproduction.


At what point on the graph is the population of horses at carrying capacity?

The population of horses reaches carrying capacity on the graph at the horizontal asymptote, where the population levels off and no longer increases despite changes in environmental factors. This point indicates that the population has stabilized and is supported by the available resources in the habitat. At this stage, the birth rate and death rate balance out, resulting in a constant population size.


What must be true for a population to remain constant over time?

For a population to remain constant over time, the birth rate must equal the death rate, ensuring that the number of individuals being born is equal to the number of individuals dying. Additionally, there should be no migration in or out of the population, as this can also impact population size.


What are three different measurement that describe populations?

Two 'characteristics in a population of organisms' virtually means two things that you can see in a group of the same animals. So for example, in a group of Spider Monkeys, you might notice that they have: 1) Large ears 2) Long arms & legs Those are just two characteristics, and there are so many others. So, to sum it all up, characteristics is how something looks all the time, and a population of organisms is just a fancy way of saying a group of animals of the same species. Hope I helped.
