Q. What would be the percent growth or birth rate per individual per hour for the same population mentioned in the previous question (Question $10$) ?

Organisms and Populations

Solution:

Initial number of Paramecium $= 50$
Number of Paramecium after $1$ hour $= 150$
Birth rate $=\frac{\text{Numberof new Paramecium}}{\text{Initial number of Paramecium}}\times100$
$=\frac{100}{50}\times100=200\%$
