Use the following information on capture/recapture method to calculate the total number of organisms in a habitat:
First capture = 200
Second capture = 120
Number of organisms with mark in second capture = 40

The total number of organisms therefore is

A.

200

B.

360

C.

600

D.

800

Correct answer is C

The formula for estimated population is

\(\frac{No of marked in 1st capture}{No of species} = \frac{No of marked in 2nd capture}{no of species in 2nd capture}\)

= \(\frac{200 \times 120}{40} = 600\)
