Assignment: Age Structure of a Population Using Life Tables Introduction to Life Tables
Questions
As part of your assessment (the other part being the completed spreadsheet), you are required to write a paragraph on each of the following questions (use Microsoft Word for this), and submit your responses as part of your assignment. The total length of this section should be no more than 600 words.
1. How do the graphs you made compare to White's data? Was your sample a reasonable representation of the black-striped wallaby population?
2. Given your results, how would you respond if someone asked the question: "To what age does a black-striped wallaby live at the Brigalow Research Station?"
3. In reference to hypothetical survivorship curves (see pages 221-222 in Attiwill and Wilson), what type of survivorship do black-striped wallabies most likely exhibit? Does this fit the typical curve for mammals?
4. Does the mortality rate fit the prediction for mammals? In very brief terms, explain the pattern of mortality in the black-striped wallaby population.
Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:
1. The answer should be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
2. The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
3. Also include a reference page. The Citations and references should follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
