What is the greatest number of individuals that an ecosystem can support within a population?

I don't think its cheese. But I do think its Carrying capacity.


Do you think the Human spieces continue raising its global carrying capacity?

no


What do you think if one of the species in the forest ecosystem disappears?

It depends on the species. If fish were to disappear then it could have a large adverse effect on the ecosystem. However, in many cases it could negatively effect the ecosystem.


What does carrying capacity have to do with whether or not a population reaches its biotic potential?

I think that etc


How do heredity and homeostasis relate?

The carrying capacity of a biological species in an environment is the maximum population size that the species can sustain for an indefinite period of time, taking into account the food, habitat, water and other necessities that are available in the environment. An indicator species is any biological species that defines a trait or characteristic of the environment.


What do you think might happen in an ecosystem if it lost all of its plants species?

It would soon loose all its animal species too.


What happens if the carrying capacity is exceeded?

It will likely descend into warfare as happened on Easter Island, and savagery will continue until the population drops below whatever remains of the carrying capacity. However, the warfare may also diminish both the human resources and Natural Resources and infrastructure to the point that no meaningful recovery is possible. Think TSE's "not with a bang, but a whimper".


Is it true that generally speaking the older the ecosystem is the fewer species it is likely to contain?

fewer species by James hodgson


Role of ecological dominance in an ecosystem?

Ecological dominance refers to the ability of a particular species to outcompete and dominate other species in an ecosystem. This can have a significant impact on the structure and function of the ecosystem. Dominant species often have a strong influence on resource availability and can shape community composition and biodiversity. They play a crucial role in maintaining the balance and stability of an ecosystem.


Why do you think the deer population size in 1900 was 4000 when it is estimated that the plateau has a carrying capacity of 30000?

The size was because deer were hunted for their skin as well as the meat. That brought the capacity to 4000.


There is a carrying capacity for humans?

No, I don't think there is a carrying capacity for humans. Humans, like all organisms, can only sustain themselves and their populations by having access to the products and services of their environment, including those of other species and ecosystems. However, humans are clever at developing and using technologies; as a result they have an unparalleled ability to manipulate the carrying capacity of the environment in support of their own activities.


How many different species are in the ecosystem?

There is no answer to that question, I'm sorry. New species are found all the time, so it is impossible to keep on track of how many animals have scientists found. They think, that probably over 90 % of all world's species are not yet found.
