Question

What would the population size be for N_ and N_ ? So as you can see much depend, on R_ Considering the equation above, what happens to the population if R_e 1 (5) R_e = 1 (6) If R_e = 2 what does that mean for population growth? In other words how many generations would it take to double in size? Solve this riddle. Suppose you had a pond that was being overgrown by an aggressive weed that doubled its numbers every day (R_e = 2). If the weed went unchecked, it would cover the pond in 30 days. The weeds growth is very slow-almost negligible-to begin with, so you decide not to remove the weed until the pond is half covered. When would that be?

Explanation / Answer

7) answer:

Suppose that the weed grows double in every day i.e Re=2. and when it goes unchecked it cover the full pond in 30 days i.e Re=2*30=60.As

As the growth of weed is negligible so decided to not remove it until the pond is half filled i.e 60/2=30

and this will take 15 days to grow the weed until the pond is half filled.
