Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fecundity schedules and life tables provide information about population growth and reproductive output, but they do not usually provide information on dispersal rates. Dispersal rates are influenced by various factors like population density, habitat availability, and competition, which are not accounted for in fecundity schedules or life tables. Therefore, dispersal rates cannot be determined using these methods.
