In a year, a population of lions had four births, two deaths from disease, one natural death, five emigrations, and five immigrations. in the same year, a population of zebras had five births, three deaths, four emigrations, and one immigration. which best explains the data?

The statement, which best explain the data is this: THE ZEBRAS HAVE A LOWER POPULATION GROWTH RATE THAN THE LIONS.

From the data given in the question, the population growth rate for lions and zebra can be calculated. The formula for calculating population growth rate is: Population growth rate = [Number of birth - Number of death] + [Number of immigration + Number of emigration]

For lions, we have: Population growth rate = [4 - 3] + [5 - 5] = 1 + 0 = + 1

For zebras, we have: Population growth = [5 - 3] + [1 - 4] = 2 + [-3] = 2 - 3 = - 1.

From the calculation above we can see that, the lions have a higher population growth rate than the zebras.
