What are two ways that carrying capacity can be increased?
sustainable use of resources
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.
What is the relationship between carrying capacity and limiting factors?
the difference between limiting factor and carrying capacity is the fact that carrying capacity is the population a ecosystem can support over TIME and limiting factor just makes the population stop growing and wont let any more people/animals/ect.. in if the place is packed
How can you use carrying capacity in a sentence?

What is an abiotic factor that limits the carrying capacity of animal species?
The availability of water is the limiting abiotic factor.
What is the tundra's carrying capacity?

What is the maximum population size that a particular habitat can support?
The maximum population size a habitat can support is determined by its carrying capacity, which is the maximum population size that can be sustained by the available resources and environmental conditions. The carrying capacity can be influenced by factors such as food availability, space, disease, competition for resources, and environmental quality.
What is one biotic factor that limits the carrying capacity of any habitat?
availability of water
How do you know when a carrying capacity has been reached?
It is difficult to define the exact carrying capacity of an organism in its environment. Variables used to determine carrying capacity are primarily the availability of food in a given area to which the organism lives. A carrying capacity can be estimated in a population that exhibits an abrupt decline in numbers immediately after a steady population increase. The carrying capacity has been reached when a given amount of recourses can only support a defined number of species.
If humans remove carnivorous predators from an ecosystem what will probably be the first observable result?
Certain herbivores will exceed carrying capacity.
What factor would decrease an area's carrying capacity for prairie dogs?

Which statement below accurately describes the carrying capacity of any ecosystem?
It is affected by both abiotic and biotic resources.
What affects the carrying capacity of an ecosystem?
The carrying capacity of an environment is determined by the limited availability of renewable resources in the environment. Also the environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism.
