Use the life table below to calculate R0 (net reproductive rate). Review Ch.10, pages 230-232 for help. lx is the proportion of the population surviving to age x (N at each age divided by 1000). Mx is the average number of offspring produced at each age. R0 = lxmx (sum the final column). Based on R0, is this population increasing, decreasing, or stable? Age N lx mx lxmx 0 1000 1.0 0 1 900 0.9 2.5 2 800 0.8 1.5 3 500 0.5 1.0 4 100 0.1 0.1 5 0 0 0
