A population of freshwater shrimp is being harvested for food. The population has an
intrinsic growth rate of 0.043 and a carrying capacity of 50,000 individuals. A) If the shrimp
population is 10,680 in 2019, what would we expect it to be in 2020? Assume that time is in
years in the logistic population growth model. B) What is the maximum sustainable yield for the
shrimp population under a fixed quota harvest? Please show your work.

Exercise 4: Assume that a population is governed by a logistic equation with carrying capacity K intrinsic growth rate r, and initial population size K is subjected to constant effort harvesting: (a) Determine the population size, N(t) (b) Verify that if E< r, the population size will approach the positive steady state, Ni, the carrying capacity K if Erand if E>r, the population will approach the zero steady state, No, astoo. (c) Find the maximum sustainable yield of the population.

Select the statements that explain why very small and very large populations experience slow population growth under the logistic growth model. 1- Small populations have fewer individuals capable of producing offspring. 2- Limited resources are shared among many individuals in very large populations. 3- The intrinsic growth rate is higher when populations contain many individuals. 4- The carrying capacity is larger for populations that contain very few individuals.

Suppose that a population that evolves according to the logistic growth is harvested at the constant rate H. Then the population size (t) satisfies the equation INNK-NU where the new term -H on the right-hand side accounts for the harvesting, r> 0 is constant, K is the carrying capacity and H is a constant greater than or equal to 0. (a) (1 mark) First suppose that there is no harvesting, that is, H = 0. Let r = 0.3 and...

Part B Please!!
Scenario The population of fish in a fishery has a growth rate that is proportional to its size when the population is small. However, the fishery has a fixed capacity and the growth rate will be negative if the population exceeds that capacity. A. Formulate a differential equation for the population of fish described in the scenario, defining all parameters and variables. 1. Explain why the differential equation models both condition in the scenario. t time a...
