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.
Is seasonal cycles a density dependent limiting factor?
No it is a Density independent factor- nonliving and does not depend on population size
What kind of limiting factor depends on the population size?
Resources such as food, water, space for shelter are some.
What is an independent limiting factor of population?
Population limiting factors are things that restrict the amount of a population from going over a certain point in an area. Some limiting factors are: Space: Too little space is a limiting factor. Imagine 20 people living in an apartment. Now 20 in a mansion. Food: Too little food is one. Imagine 20 people sharing one steak compared to 20 people eating 20 steaks.
Which is not a density dependent factor limiting population growth?
a very early fall frost

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
What is the limiting factor on the population of arctic foxes?
density dependent
What kind of limiting factor depends on the population size?
Resources such as food, water, space for shelter are some.
Identify density-dependent limiting factors and explain how they affect a population.?
- Density-dependent limiting factors that are based on population and are affected by the number of individuals. competition, predation, and parasitism
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 number of moose on the island a density-dependent or density independent limiting factor for the wolves?
Food availability for the moose and disease for the wolf
What is an independent limiting factor of population?
Population limiting factors are things that restrict the amount of a population from going over a certain point in an area. Some limiting factors are: Space: Too little space is a limiting factor. Imagine 20 people living in an apartment. Now 20 in a mansion. Food: Too little food is one. Imagine 20 people sharing one steak compared to 20 people eating 20 steaks.
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.))
This is a limiting factor of a population that does not depend on the population density. These factors are usually abiotic factors.?
density independent limiting factor
