Slide 1 - Quizvraag

As succession progresses, animal species diversity increases due to the fact that
A
less soil is being created
B
food choices increase
C
precipitation rates stabilize
D
temperatures moderate

Slide 2 - Quizvraag

What type of succession does this picture show?
A
Primary succession
B
Secondary succession

Slide 3 - Quizvraag

Measuring population
Size and density

Slide 4 - Tekstslide

Why?
  • Knowing if population is increasing or decreasing
    - Useful for predicting future developments 
    - Understanding if conservation is working

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

How?
  • Ideally exact numbers, but total count is often not possible
  • Therefor, estimates of size
  • Method used for estimates mainly depends on the type of organism
  • Plants/ not very mobile animals: quadrat or transect (first video)
  • Mobile animals: mark-recapture (second video)

Slide 6 - Tekstslide

Slide 7 - Video

B

C
cube
D
quarter

Slide 10 - Video

Which one of these is a correct assumption you need to make about a population between samplings?
A

B
It won't rain between samplings
C
There are lots of deaths
D
There are lots of births

Slide 11 - Quizvraag

A
500
B
250
C
75
D
200
