Question

Suppose that, using the simulation in Exercise 4 (Connections), you devise a patch configuration using stepping stones. In your first simulation run, you set the leave prairie probability to 0.9 and turn probability in non-prairie to zero. You run the simulation once, with no fires. The simulated butterfly population size after 100 weeks increases from 25 to 132. What does this result tell you about the real-world Fender's blue butterfly population? Butterfly survival in this patch configuration is not particularly sensitive to the probability that butterflies leave their habitat. As long as butterflies travel in a straight line when they leave their habitat, the population will never go extinct. Numerous additional behavioral parameters must be incorporated into the simulation model in order to draw any conclusion. A sensitivity analysis with this model requires multiple runs. One run is insufficient to say much about real-world butterflies.

Explanation / Answer

The option 2 is true. As the leave prairie probability is set to 0.9 it suggests that the area is highly segmented area. Here butterflies follow resource distribution hypothesis than behavior at boundaries hypothesis, in resource distribution hypothesis butterflies migrate more if area is segmented area because. If an area is concise with hard habitat boundaries the butterflies will not able to migrate. As prairie ecosystem is not more suitable to butterflies, they have to move along. The butterflies like to grow on tree-compiled ecosystem.
