1. Common rats (Rattus norvegicus) in tropical areas breed continuously throughout the whole year. The instantaneous annual rate of increase for this species can reach 6.02 (this is a very large value!). Starting with a population of 20 individuals, how many rats can we expect to see in six years if they always find enough food and space for all individuals?
2. Refer to the problem (1) and recalculate the population size after two years now that you found that the carrying capacity for that population is of 25,000,000 individuals.
hope it's clear to you now if not please mention in comment I'll help you out
