What is a population?Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the same time!
![Page 3: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Populations
Note that the word POPULATION refers to the group in general AND the size of the group!!
![Page 4: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Populations
DENSITY
NUMBER of individuals PER UNIT AREA (or volume) the number of individual organisms in a space
This is often related to habitat qualityFluctuations in density reflect changes in the local conditions (new parasite, abiotic factors change, etc)
![Page 5: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
DispersionDispersion is the distribution or arrangement of organisms in the habitat
Most populations are clumped. Why?Resources are not uniformly distributedProtection of the group / Pack living gives some predators greater success Temporary mating or young-rearing groups / seed distribution

Population Growth
![Page 8: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Growth Rate
How fast a population’s size changes over time is called a growth rate.Growth rates can be positive… what would that mean?Growth rates can be negative… what would that mean?Growth rates can be zero… what would that mean?
Lab Time

Moving On?
How do you think MIGRATION affects growth rate?Immigration would ADD to populationEmigration would SUBTRACT from population

Factors affecting Growth
Biotic Potential is the fastest rate at which a population can grow.Limited by reproductive potential, or the maximum number of offspring a member can produceAlso limited by generation time: the average time needed to reach reproductive age.
![Page 12: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Compare Biotic PotentialMosquito:- has thousands of kids- able to reproduce in days!- population growth? MONGO!
Elephant:-Has less than 10 offspring - Takes 13 years before able to reproduce- Population growth? Pitiful!
![Page 13: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
It’s Out Of Control!
Exponential growth occurs in nature only when populations have plenty of food and spaceNo competition or predators can existOften occurs with exotic or invasive species! (why??)
![Page 14: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Population Regulation
What causes exponential growth to be limited?
Limiting ResourceHabitat lossDiseaseDisaster (natural or manmade)CompetitionPredator-Prey relationships
![Page 16: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Limiting Resources
The natural resource that inhibits growth is called the LIMITING RESOURCE. Habitat loss can increase potential candidates for thisCompetition, disease, and predation also limit population growth.
Many times, members of a species will carve out TERRITORY to avoid competitionHow do different species mark out territory? Birds? Dogs? Trees?
![Page 17: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Population Regulation
Habitat Loss is also listed as a means in which growth is inhibitedHow would this affect population growth?It would speed up the use of the limiting resource, increasing death rate.
![Page 19: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CARRYING CAPACITY-The theoretical limit that a habitat can support is called the carrying capacity.-What pattern do you see over there ?
![Page 20: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Population Regulation
Beyond resource and habitat limitations, other factors, such as disease and disaster can regulate populationsWe divide all population limiting factors into DENSITY DEPENDENT and DENSITY INDEPENDENT regulation
![Page 22: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Population Regulation
Density DependentDefinition: deaths occur more quickly when population is crowded.Most limiting factors are density dependent.Example – disease: needs to spread from organism to organism.Example – competition: the more individuals in an area, the less of a resource is available to each.
![Page 23: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Population Regulation
Density IndependentWhen the cause of death is density INDEPENDENT, a proportion of the population will die, regardless of congestion.Weather and disasters are examples
Let’s Classify Some, shall we?

No Man Is An Island
Species are never alone in an ecosystem.In order to survive, any population must carve out its unique role within the ecosystem – called its NICHE.A niche includes the species’ physical home, the environmental factors necessary for the species’ survival, and all the species’ interaction with other organisms!

Inter Species Relationships
The Way that SPECIES INTERACT can accentuate or inhibit population growth.We’ve discussed these relationships before, but now we’re going to study them in depth
![Page 26: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Symbioses: Ways Species Interact

Competition Harmed Harmed Each species negatively impacts the other
Predation and Parasitism Benefited Harmed Species A feeds on
Species B
Mutualism Benefited Benefited Each species is helpful to the other
Commensalism Benefited UnaffectedSpecies A benefits from species B, Species B is
unaffected
Amensalism Unaffected HarmedSpecies A may benefit
from the death of species B

Symbiosis and CoevolutionA relationship in which two organisms live in close association is called symbiosisUsually, at least one of the organisms benefitsOver time, species in close relationships may coevolve – that is, they evolve adaptations that reduce the harm or improve the benefit of the symbiotic relationshipAs we go through relationships, see if you can spot the coevolutions!

Competition
Competition is a relationship in which different INDIVIDUALS OR POPULATIONS attempt to use the same limited resource.It occurs within and between speciesWhen species compete, we say their niches overlap.
![Page 30: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Indirect Competition
Species can compete even if they never come in contact.Day feeders and nocturnal animals may all use the same water hole – they are indirectly competing.Humans rarely interact with potato bugs, but we’re in competition for potatoes.
![Page 32: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Adaptations to Competition
In the course of evolution, adaptations that decrease competition will be advantageous when niches overlap.Niche restriction is when each species uses LESS of the niche than they are capable of using (for example, territory restriction)

Predation
An organism that feeds on another organism is called a predator. The organism that is fed upon is the prey.This interaction is predation.This is NOT as simple as it seems. Sometimes predators are prey! Most organisms have developed predation defense mechanisms.

Parasitism
An organism that lives in or on another organism and feeds on the other organism is called a parasite.The organism that the parasite steals nourishment from is called the host.Parasites are somewhat like predators, the difference being that parasites live IN or ON the host. Predators only eat the host.

Animal Parasite… the flea
![Page 42: Remember, a species, such as homo sapiens, can exist in many places. The population is all the members of the species living in the same place at the](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56649e215503460f94b0dd72/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Common parasites of the human body(1) The hookworm latches on the walls of the colon with
its sharp teeth where it feeds on blood. (2) The tapeworm is the longest parasite. A mature adult can lay a million eggs a day. (3) Tapeworm eggs embedded in the colon. (4) The roundworm can grow to be 20 inches (50 cm) long and lay 200,000 eggs per day. (5) Pinworms migrate outside the colon during the night to lay their
eggs around the anus. This causes the nightly itching of many unsuspecting victims.

Mutualism
A close relationship between two species in which each species provides a benefit to the other is called mutualismAlgae in coral is mutualisticThe bacteria in your gut is mutualistic

Commensalism
When one species benefits, but the other species is unaffected, the relationship is called COMMENSALISM.Remoras, for example, either hitch a ride on bigger animals, or they eat food scraps from the bigger animal, or both…Mimicry can be another type – One organism looks like another, for a reason. They benefit, and the ones they mimic are unaffected.

Amensalism
A symbiotic relationship in which one species is unaffected but the other is harmed.Often, the second species is actually terminated. Think about grass being tramped by people.Sometimes, the surviving species uses the nutrients from the terminated species, so there is benefit.As an example, many plants secrete substances that inhibit or kill neighboring plants! They then may use the detritus of the dead plants as nutrition!
