Can Anyone Help with Calculating Population Growth?

AI Thread Summary
To calculate population growth, the formula rN = dN/dt is used, representing a basic model. This equation can be solved by separating variables and integrating both sides. Understanding this formula allows for the analysis of how populations change over time. It is essential for studying dynamics in ecology and demographics. Mastering this calculation is crucial for accurate population growth assessments.

Can anyone tell me how to calculate population growth. my book doesn't tell me how to do that.

is the formula rN=dN/dt

That's a simplistic model for population growth, but yes it works. Just solve the differential equation now (i.e., separate the variables and integrate both sides).
 

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
