what is carrying capacity?

∙ 11y agoThere is a limit to available resources and all organisms in an ecosystem compete for those resources. Those that are better adapted, will obtain higher amounts of those resources leaving less for those that do not have the best abilities. These organisms that did not obtain all the resources they needed will die therefore controlling population growth.

Birth Control is what is most likely to limit human population growth.
What is a density dependant limitation on population growth?
competition
What causes population growth to slow down?
Competition for resources
How does competition limit a population growth?

A model of population growth that assumes that finite resource levels limit population growth?
Logistic Model
The is the point at which environmental resources limit population growth.?
This point is known as carrying capacity. It is the maximum population size that an environment can sustain based on its available resources and factors such as food, water, and shelter. When a population exceeds the carrying capacity, it can lead to resource depletion and may result in a decline or collapse in population numbers.

What limits population growth?
Shorter life expectancy, incurable disease, over population and not enough food can limit population growth
What factors limit the growth of population?
Factors that limit population growth include limited resources such as food and water, environmental factors like disease and natural disasters, competition for resources, and the availability of space for individuals to live in. Additionally, social factors such as access to education and healthcare, cultural norms regarding family size, and government policies can also impact population growth.
How does competition affect population growth?
people need more land
How do competition can limit population size?
They kill and harm eachother, thus decreasing population. Hope that helps :)
How can ecological competition be modeled?
Competition also can be modeled by examining resources rather than population growth equations.
