Document Summary
Accuracy vs. precision precision is a measure of how close all of the points are to each other accuracy is how close you are to the expected/target number. The old and young were killed more commonly as they were easer to catch. Life tables can help us determine whether or not a population is healthy. Static life table record age at death of large number of individuals over a narrow window in time this requires an accurate estimate of age at death. Age distribution (really useful) calculate difference in proportion of individuals in each age class assumes differences in numbers from one age class to the next due to mortality assumes the population is stable in size. Dark lines on tree rings signify cold seasons. Dall sheep a similar pattern of survival by the rotifer floscularia conifera, is complete within 11 days. Many species show initially high juvenile mortality.
