You conduct a mark and recapture experiment to measure the size of a population of birds in your area. In your initial capture, you tag 173 birds. In your second capture, you observe 212 birds and find that 15 of them are tagged. What is the estimated size of the population? (Note: round to the nearest individual, but only at the end of the calculation.)
Homework Answers
Let the size of the population is N. Then,
The proportion of tagged and total in both population and sample should be same. Hence,
N/173 = 212/15
Therefore,
N = (212/15)*173
N = 2445

2. Let's try an example of the mark-and-recapture method. You would like to estimate the size of a population of wood frogs in a pond. You begin your sampling with a first capture of 22 individuals and you mark all of them. When you return, you capture 16 wood frogs and four of them are marked. In this example, a. M= b. C = c. R =

please help me with these problems. thank you
Introduction The Island of Daphne Major, one of several islands that make up the archipelago of islands off the coast of Ecuador, supports a population of ground finches, Geospiza fortis. Finches are small songbirds with chunky beaks which they use to crack open seeds from various shrubs and trees on the island. These seeds make up most of the finch diet. Biologists have been studying this population for over 30 years. Each...

ReviewI Constants Periodic Table The air that surrounds us is mostly empty space, and it can be almost a factor of one thousand less dense than water. Within that mostly empty space, gas molecules are moving around at high speed and colliding with each other, and if you are in an enclosed space, they are also colliding with the walls. We can more easily observe the behavior of a gas by confining it to a container with a known volume,...

Part A - SIR model for the spread of disease Overview. This part of the assignment uses a mix of theory and data to estimate the contact number c=b/k of an epidemic and hence to estimate the infection-spreading parameter b. The point is that once you know the value of b for a certain disease and population, you can use it in your model the next time there is an cpidemic, thus cnabling you to make predictions about the demand...
