You want to determine how a small population of a species may survive in the future as development around their habitat increases.You have data on the survivorship and reproductive rates of this age-structured population.Ideally,you will use the results of your research to inform land managers of predicted population sizes year by year and the probability of extinction during those years.What method would you use to do this work?
A) A minimum viable population analysis B) Estimate the proportion of heterozygous individuals and determine the effective population size C) Use a model such as a population viability analysis D) Use a Lotka-Volterra model
