Describe the conditions under which logistic growth occurs?
logistic growth is when a population experiences exponential growth but at a certain point is limited because the population exceeds its carrying capacity.
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.
How are changes in populations related to the availability of an ecosystems resources?
Population sizes are limited by the amount of resources that are available.
What is the death rate of dysentery?
140 million people die of dysentry per year.
12 A given species of bacteria is known to require 100 different nutrients 99 of these are in optimum quantities but one is limited You would expect that population growth would be?
limited by the quantity of that nutrient - its the limiting stepthe actually rate of growth depends on the relationship between tha nutrient and the growth rate if its a linear relationship then growth rate = k[Nutrient]
How is any wildlife population size limited?
Any wildlife population size is limited because of carrying capacity. Carrying capacity is the largest a population can grow before it doesn't have any more resources.
When a rabbit population in a meadow cannot grow any larger how to the limited resources The population has reached its?
Carrying capacity
How is earth like an island?
The Earth and an island have a carrying capacity for the human population and they both have limited rescources
Why are human population not limited by the carrying capacity of their ecosystems?
Humans are able to use their knowledge to locate resources they need.
When a population stops growing and its size no longer fluctuates it is said to?
Im might be called stagnant or limited at the maximum carrying capacity
Describe the conditions under which logistic growth occurs?
logistic growth is when a population experiences exponential growth but at a certain point is limited because the population exceeds its carrying capacity.
When will natural selection occur APEX?
When there is limited food.
Which of these terms is defined as population growth limited by carring capacity?
If you want me to pick out the correct answer from a list of multiple choices for you, you're going to have to let me see the list.
What is the effect of exponential growth on population?
In exponential growth, the number of individuals in a population grows rapidly. With more individuals comes an increased demand for resources, food, competition, etc. There is never an unlimited amount of such resources, so a population growing exponentially is eventually limited by the amount the population can take from its environment. This limitation -- the point that a population exceeds its means -- is called the carrying capacity. Sometimes an exponentially-growing population will grow past its carrying capacity for a time before dipping back down and leveling off. In some cases (like with humans), the carrying capacity can be pushed further and further with adaption (or with humans-- innovation).
What is limited insight?
Limited insight can be defined as insufficiency of the capacity to discern the true nature of a situation. In marketing, this is considered to be minimal or no penetration in a market.
What is a particular natural resource that when limited determines the carrying capacity of an ecosystem for a particular species called?
We always called that a "limiting factor".
Who is thomas malthus and what was his theory on carrying capacity?
He was an English cleric circa 1800. He simply stated that animals - and that includes people - breed faster than their food supply can (possibly) grow ... and so any population will eventually be limited by famine and/or disease.
