摘要: Crowded tadpoles in a limited volume grow to divide into two groups, normally growing group and stunted group, even if there are plenty of food. This phenomenon was found be interpreted by model involving mutual inhibition the growth among individuals. It assumed that curve an individual modelled Gompertz equation. Through mathematical analysis computer simulation model, it shown average rate decreasing function population density segregated subgroups, certain range density. A theoretical prospect is proportionate aquarium obtained.
