CBSE class 12th biology notes Population and Population Growth

CBSE class 12th biology notes Population and Population Growth

There are four variables/ causes that govern the population growth/population size:
  1. Birth rate(Natality): It is defined as a number of births per 1000 individuals in one year.
  2. Death rate (Mortality): It is defined as a number of death per 1000 individuals per year.
  3. Immigration: Entry of individuals in a given population.
  4. Emigration: Exit of individuals from a given population.
A population gains individuals by birth and immigration and loses them by deaths and emigration.
Thus, population change = (Births + Immigration) – (Deaths + Emigration)
Effect of Age Distribution on Population growth
In many organisms, the generations overlap. It is shown, from a theoretical point of view, that competition between the different ages classes in such organisms will have important population dynamics consequences. Strong competition between age classes can be either a stabilizing or destabilizing force depending on the stage of the life cycle—juvenile survival or adult survival/reproduction—at which density dependence occurs. When juvenile survival is density dependent, competition has a stabilizing effect. On the other hand, when reproduction is density dependent, strong competition tends to be destabilizing, i.e. it will cause population density to fluctuate. It is also shown that delayed effects on reproduction, caused by strong competition as the adults grow up, tend to be destabilizing. These findings have interesting implications for the population dynamic behavior in organisms with different types of life cycles, and these theoretical findings might be relevant to the interpretation of patterns of population dynamic behavior.

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material  Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne...
