How can density help identify a mineral?

Each mineral has a characteristic density (or range of densities), so if the measured density is a close match to a mineral you know, it MAY be that mineral; if it doesn't match, it is something different.

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.

Explain the relatoinship between th density of a mineral and its size?

A mineral's density increases as its mass per unit volume increases. If a mineral has a small mass and large unit volume, its density is smaller. Whereas, if a mineral has a large mass and a small unit volume, its density is greater.
