Chapter 59.1, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The age structure of the population if the population pyramid of figure 59.2a given in the text book was inverted.
Introduction: The growth of future population of organisms can be determined with the help of age structure of population. Age structure can be defined as the relative numbers of organisms of each defined particular age group.

- These data were collected from a survey of all organisms in the population in March 2020.What is the average age of an individual in this population? Your answer should be written to one decimal place.arrow_forwardA population may pass through changes in age structure without changing in size. Do you agree or disagree? Justify.arrow_forwardIn a population of fish, gold scales are dominant to black scales. A fish population of 100 total have 65 fish that have gold scales.
