- Give an example of how density-dependent and density-independent factors might interact.arrow_forwardNeed help Discuss the differences between the equilibrium and non-equilibrium views of populations.arrow_forwardThe following statements are either true or false. Indicate true or false and justify your answer briefly. An unbiased estimator is said to be consistent if the difference between the estimator and the population parameter grows smaller as the sample size grows larger. An unbiased estimator is a sample statistic whose expected value equals the population parameter. Knowing that an estimator is unbiased neither assures us that its expected value equals the population parameter, nor does it tell us how close the estimator is to the population parameter. A specific confidence interval obtained from sample data will always correctly estimate the population parameter.arrow_forward
