Full Description

This examination will focus on the fundamental concepts that regulate population size, including density-dependent and density-independent factors.

These concepts are essential not only for understanding ecological balance but also for practical applications in wildlife management and conservation biology.

Students will be evaluated on their ability to articulate the mechanisms behind population regulation and their understanding of specific case studies.

A clear grasp of ecological theories will be expected, alongside the ability to relate theoretical aspects to real-world conservation efforts.

Sample Questions

  • What role do density-dependent factors play in population regulation?
  • Can you describe examples of density-independent factors affecting populations?
