What is an overshoot (in terms of populations)?

When a population exceeds its carrying capacity.

What is a die-off?

When a population's density declines drastically, typically falling well under the carrying capacity.

Identify what each number is referencing.

1. Overshoot
2. Die-off

What is the difference between a deterministic model and a stochastic one?

Predicting a result without versus with accounting for random variation in population growth rate.

Why are smaller populations more likely to go extinct than large populations?

Hint: birth/death rates

A string of years with low birth rates/high death rates will hit a smaller population harder than a larger population.
