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...

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name Noble Gases Noble gases, sometimes known as inert gases or erosions, are part of the modern periodic table's 18th group. This group is made up of the following individuals: Helium is a kind of gas (He) Neon (Ne) Argon is a gas (Ar) Krypton  (Kr) Xenon is a kind of xenon gas (Xe) Radon is a gas that can cause cancer (Rn) Noble gases exist in a gaseous state under typical temperature and pressure conditions. Because all noble gases have stable electronic structures, they have very little chemical reactivity. They are monoatomic gases that do not readily form molecules. 'ns2np6' represents the basic electrical configuration of noble gases. As a result, noble gases' outermost valence shells can be deemed 'complete.' The chemical inertness of the group of 18 elements is due to this. Because of the stability of certain elements, these gases form a group. These stable elements' crusts are totally filled.
