Size of population
Density- independent factors :D
Resources that are essential for life (limiting factors): Availability of: Water, Food, Shelter, Mates; Predator density, Species: population, Size, Competing
The usual response in the population size of many species in regard to a density-independent limiting factor is for the population to decrease in size. Floods, wildfires, and droughts are examples of density-independent limiting factors.
Climate,lack of shelter, sicknesses and parasites, food or water as well as the carrying capacity are examples of limiting factors.
limiting factors
A limiting factor is a condition or resource that restricts the growth of a population and helps maintain it at a certain size. Examples include food availability, predation, competition for resources, or environmental factors like temperature or habitat suitability.
Limiting factors whose effects increase as the size of the population increases are known as density-dependent factors. Competition is an example of a density-dependent limiting factor.
Density- Dependent factors
Size of population
Density- independent factors :D
A resource whose availability limits the size of a population is a limiting factor. Food is a limiting factor when there is not enough food available to feed the entire population. Any resource can be a limiting factor for population size.
limiting factors
Most likely not a limiting factor for a population in an ecosystem is the availability of oxygen in the atmosphere. Other common limiting factors include food availability, water supply, habitat space, predation, and disease.
What limiting factors affect the population of the dusky fiel mice
Resources that are essential for life (limiting factors): Availability of: Water, Food, Shelter, Mates; Predator density, Species: population, Size, Competing
The basic needs like food, shelter are some of the factors that affect the population's growth regardless of the size.
