If a population growing exponentially double in size in 3 years, what is the intrinsic rate of increase (r) of the population?
The intrinsic rate of increase (r) of the population is measured by the formula
r=log2t≥0.79313=0.264 or 26.4%
If the initial size of a population was No=10 and the population is growing at the rate of 0.6%, when will the population stabilize? The carrying capacity of the population is 300.
