What happens to the carrying capacity of an ecosystem when resources become limited?

Eventually the organisms will die because they would die of thirst beacause there wouldn't be any water for them to drink. (:

What happens to a medium that is carrying sound waves?
the medium will get vibrate.
What happens when a compass is palced near a current carrying conductor?
If the conductor is carrying AC, no effect. If the conductor is carrying DC, then the compass needle will be deflected. Provided the two are close enough, and the DC current is strong enough.
When saturated air is cooled what happens to its capacity to hold water vapor?
The capacity becomes smaller, and the water condenses out (the source of fog).
What happens to a compass when it is brought near a current-carrying wire?
the compass aligns with the magnetic field created by the wire
What happens to a current carrying wire in a magnetic field when it is reversed?
the wire would be deflected perpendicular to the magnetic field in the opposite direction.

What happens to a population when its grows larger than its carrying capacity?
basically the size of a population can only grow to equal the amount of resources the environment can provide (carrying capacity). So if there arent many resources in an area and too large of a population, then there will be starvation and fight for resources. But if there is an overabundance of resources and the carrying capacity is very high, then the population will grow till it falls under its own weight. It's the cirlce of life.
What happens when an environment has not reached its carrying capacity for a population?
The population continues to grow.
Why does competition happen?
Competition happens because there are limited resources in an ecosystem.
What happens if a population grows larger than the carring capacity?
If the population exceeds the carrying capacity, unless the carrying capacity is only teoretical and thus in practice proven wrong, the ecosystem will slowly diminish. There won't be enough lifeforms to support the populus and all life forms will die.
What is carrying capacity what happens if the population grows larger than the carrying capacity?
Some sort of limiting factor will cause the population to fall again
What happens when an environment has reached its carrying capacity for a population?
The population continues to grow.
What happens to population growth in a logistic growth pattern as it reaches carrying capacity?
The population levels off at the carrying capacity.
What happens when the blood has less than it normal oxygen carrying capacity?
Brain failure
What happens to a population that has not reached its carrying capacity?
exponential
What happens if the carrying capacity is exceeded?
It will likely descend into warfare as happened on Easter Island, and savagery will continue until the population drops below whatever remains of the carrying capacity. However, the warfare may also diminish both the human resources and Natural Resources and infrastructure to the point that no meaningful recovery is possible. Think TSE's "not with a bang, but a whimper".
What happens to abiotic factors when biotic populations increase?
There will always be enough abiotic resources in an ecosystem.
