The correct Answer is:
To find the density of the population in the given habitat, we need to analyze the changes in population size based on the provided data. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Births (B) = 200 - Deaths (D) = 150 - Emigration (E) = 200 - Immigration (I) = 150 2. **Calculate the net change in population:** The formula to calculate the change in population size is: \[ \text{Population Change} = (\text{Births} + \text{Immigration}) - (\text{Deaths} + \text{Emigration}) \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Population Change} = (200 + 150) - (150 + 200) \] 3. **Perform the calculations:** - Calculate the total births and immigration: \[ 200 + 150 = 350 \] - Calculate the total deaths and emigration: \[ 150 + 200 = 350 \] - Now, substitute these totals back into the population change formula: \[ \text{Population Change} = 350 - 350 = 0 \] 4. **Determine the effect on population density:** Since the population change is 0, it indicates that the population size remains unchanged. Therefore, the density of the population will also remain unchanged. 5. **Conclusion:** The density of the population remains unchanged. ### Final Answer: The density of the population remains unchanged.
