Identify the correct equation with respect to diagram below, which depicts decrease in population density.
Figure

  • Correct answer
    A
    $P > Q$
  • B
    $P < Q$
  • C
    $P = Q$
  • D
    $P \propto Q$

Solution

Based on the given flow diagram, $P$ represents the initial state of the population density and $Q$ represents the final state after a certain process has occurred.

The process indicated in the box is a "Decrease in Population density".

For a population density to decrease over a period of time, the initial population density ($P$) must be greater than the final population density ($Q$).

Therefore, the correct mathematical relationship is $P > Q$.

Answer: $P > Q$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
