Questions:
1. There were 20 seeds in my first initial pepper.
2. There were 3,200,000 plants left in my pepper population after 5 generations.
3. The first 4 generations in my graph consistently remained the same basically
and the 5th generation it sky-rocketed.
4. 5 environmental factors for population growth: rainfall, floods, predators,
temperature, and competitors.
5. The population of my seeds would not be effected as much by the rainfall as
much but with floods it might not be able to grow in the ground it will get uprooted and stay afloat in the water. Temperature would drastically effect the
growth of my seeds by it being too cold for the seeds to grow and if it was too
hot for them to grow.
