2. A group of researchers followed a population of gray squirrels for a decade to quantify survival and fecundity. Below is a life table of age-specific survival and fecundity in this squirrel population. + 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 530 134 56 39 23 12 5 2 lx 1.000 0.253 0.116 0.089 0.058 0.039 0.025 0.022 bx 0.05 1.28 2.28 2.28 2.28 2.28 b.
