The number of organism a piece of land can support?
population density
What happens to population growth in a logistic growth pattern as it reaches carrying capacity?
The population levels off at the carrying capacity.
Why would natural selection not occur in this population?
The population has not yet reached the carrying capacity.-apex :D
What is used to describe the greatest number of people within a population that an ecosystem can support?
Carrying Capacity:-).
What is carrying capacity what happens if the population grows larger than the carrying capacity?
Some sort of limiting factor will cause the population to fall again
What is it called when a population starts out slowly then increases rapidly and eventually flattens out at the carrying capacity?
logistic growth
What happens to a population when the size of the population reaches carrying capacity?
starvation increases to the point where this population is maintained.
What is the rate of change of a population when it has reached its carrying capacity?
Although it will usually far pass the carrying capacity then come back down, it will eventually even out at zero change.
The number of organism a piece of land can support?
population density
The largest population an environment can support?
The name given to the largest population than an environment can support is called it's carrying capacity.
The ability of the environment to support the population?
Carrying capacity.
What happen when a population reach its carrying capacity?
Ideally a population at its carrying capacity is stable, there is enough for all to survive. The system is usually slightly underdamped and the population will vary between just over its carrying capacity where some individuals suffer and under its capacity where there is a surplus. If the system is severely under damped there are extreme swings in the population. A typical example is the relation between Arctic hares and foxes.
If a population overshoots its it may have a population crash 2 words?
carrying capacity
What factor will most likely increases the carrying capacity of a mouse population in a forest?
High rains increase the water supply
Which factor influences the survival of the population?
carrying capacity
What happens to population growth in a logistic growth pattern as it reaches carrying capacity?
The population levels off at the carrying capacity.
Is there carrying capacity for humans?
There is a carrying capacity for humans. This is because humans will eventually run out of Natural Resources and space.
