    1. Δ𝑁Δ𝑇=𝐵−𝐷ΔNΔT=B−D\frac{\Delta N}{\Delta T} = B - D  \nonumber where Δ𝑁=ΔN=\Delta N = Change in number, Δ𝑇=ΔT=\Delta T = = Change in time, 𝐵BB = birth rate and 𝐷DD = death rate

      I am still a bit confused as to have change in N/change in T is the same as B-D. How do the proportions of these rates convert to this number?

    1. When studying population change ecologists typically work in terms of survival rates,

      Why do ecologists choose to calculate survival rates rather than death rates?
