Parasitism
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.
The density dependent factor refers to the factors that affect the size or growth of a given population density. The factors also affect the mortality rate and the Birth Rate of a population. Some of the density dependent factors are disease, parasitism, availability of food and migration.
- Density-dependent limiting factors that are based on population and are affected by the number of individuals. competition, predation, and parasitism
Food, water, and natural resources are the most common examples of density-dependent factors.
Density-dependent limiting factors, such as competition for resources, predation, disease, and parasitism, depend on the population size. As the population size increases, the impact of these factors may also increase, leading to adjustments in population growth and dynamics.
competition for resources, predation, disease, and parasitism. These factors tend to have a stronger effect on population growth as population density increases.
A density dependent factor is a factor that is affected by the amount of organisms in a population. An example of this would be sickness, as the higher the density is, the more easily the sickness will spread.
Space and food sources are density-dependent factors.
Bacteria and other parasites are density dependent. For example, tuberculosis which is caused by a bacteria that is spread through the air when someone who is infected sneezes or coughs, and it infects a higher percentage of people in high-density cities than in rural areas.
Density-dependent limiting factors act most strongly on populations that are large and crowded, as these factors become more influential as population density increases. Examples include competition for resources, predation, disease, and parasitism, which can limit growth and reproduction. In contrast, small or sparse populations are less affected by these factors. Thus, the impact of density-dependent factors is intensified in populations nearing their carrying capacity.
Disease is Density dependent.
