If a parasite began attacking the fog beetles increasing their death rate to .12, how would this change alter the growth rate of the fog beetles (remember r=b-d, use the information from the initial question about fog beetles)?
Question 10 options:
An increase in death rate would cause the growth rate to decrease to .76
An increase in death rate would cause the growth rate to increase to .98
An increase in death rate would not cause a change to the growth rate
