What are density -independent limiting factor?
Natural disasters,seasonal cycles,and human activity such as rivers that rush.
What is the main difference between a density dependent limiting factor and a density independent limiting factor?
A density dependent factor is a limiting factor that depends on population size. A Density-independent limiting factor affects all populations in similar ways, regardless of the population size. Its in my biology book.
What are the influencing factor of wetland?
Density-dependent limiting factor: A limiting factor whose effects depend on the size of the population depend on population density. The less dense the population, the less severe the effect of the limiting factor. Examples: Predation and disease Density-independent limiting factor: A limiting factor that has the same effect on a population regardless of its population density. Examples: Natural disasters and climate
Why are natural disasters density-independent?
No, disasters are density dependant.
What is the difference between population-dependent and population-independent pressures?
Population dependent factors become more limiting as the population increases. (eg. amount of resources, intraspecific competition, predation, disease, physiological stress) Population independent factors lower the population size without regards to it. (eg. natural disasters, unnatural weather, acts of fate (volcano, flood, fire, earthquake, hurricane, etc.))
What is the difference between density-dependent factors and density independent factors?
Density dependent factors are factors that depend of the population (density). Such as food, water, and space Density Independent factors are factors that the population (density) depends on. Such as weather, natural disasters and random occurances.
What is the difference between density independent factors and density dependent factors?
Density dependent factors are factors that depend of the population (density). Such as food, water, and space Density Independent factors are factors that the population (density) depends on. Such as weather, natural disasters and random occurances.
What are the similarities between density-dependent factors and density- independent factors?
Density dependent factors are factors that depend of the population (density). Such as food, water, and space Density Independent factors are factors that the population (density) depends on. Such as weather, natural disasters and random occurances.
Is the change in the number of predators density dependent or independent?
Density Dependent
What are some examples of density-independent limiting factors?
Density-independent factors are environmental factors affecting a population regardless of size, such as temperature and oxygen supply.One Density-independent factors would be the impacts of an earthquake on a pack of wild dogs. The number of dogs does not affect the result of the earthquake upon the dog population. In contrast, drought is a density-dependent factor because more dogs will cause greater competition for limited water resources.or just C. competition
Example of density dependent factor?
predation, availability of food, disease, parasitism Things that depend on the size of the population, as opposed to density independent factors such as weather, and natural disasters.
What are 3 limiting factors for population?
some limiting factors are natural disasters and weather conditions like hail or snow.
