Question
choose the correct answer. when conducting a population sampling study, what do you expect to happen after you release the tagged individuals? that they will spread evenly and do not die that they will die quickly
In a population sampling study using the mark - recapture method (which often involves tagging individuals), one of the key assumptions is that the tagged individuals mix evenly within the population and that there is no significant mortality (death) of the tagged individuals before the recapture phase. If the tagged individuals died quickly, it would severely bias the population estimate.
