Question
the kalij pheasant is a game bird that was introduced to hawaii in the 1960s. it is commonly found in the hawaii volcanoes national park. in order for the population of the kalij pheasants in the park to remain in dynamic equilibrium, which must occur? the population must grow exponentially each year. the birth and death rates must remain approximately equal. the population must be exported to other areas of hawaii. the food sources must be able to support maximum population sizes.
Dynamic equilibrium in a population means that the birth and death rates are approximately equal, maintaining a relatively stable population size. This is a fundamental concept in population - biology. Exporting the population or exponential growth are not characteristics of dynamic equilibrium. Adequate food sources support population size but are not the definition of dynamic equilibrium.
