Some countries are in areas where there is very little rain and the weather is extremely hot, so it dries up what water they do have. Plus many people in such countries live in areas that don't have modern Plumbing to bring water to them.
India receives an average of 4,000 billion cubic meters of rainfall every year. Unfortunately, only 48% of rainfall ends up in India's rivers. Due to lack
of storage and crumbling infrastructure, only 18% can be utilized.[19] Rainfall is confined to the monsoon season, June through September, when India gets,
on average, 75% of its total annual precipitation. Once again, due to India's storage crunch the government is unable to store surplus water for the dry
season. Such uneven seasonal distribution of rainfall has not stimulated the development of better capturing and storing infrastructure, making water scarcity an unnecessary yet critical problem.

∙ 13y agoi am currently doing the same problem, it is because people can get diseases if the drink the contaminated water, which leads to population decress, and if they dont drink water then they die of dehydration

∙ 14y agowhy are we running out of water? when and where are we going too??
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoEnvironmental factors based on annual rainfall. Location, as in proximity to water sources like lakes and aquifers. Also in some areas population demands have depleted water sources.

What factor limits the growth of the prey population?
T amount of available food and the population of carnivours
How does the availability of resources affect whether a population's growth is exponential or logistic?
If resources are limitless than a population's growth will be exponential. Growth will be logistic in cases where there are limited resources. As the population grows closer to the logistical limit, the overall growth will slow.
What is slowed when water is a limiting factor in an environment?
Population growth
How does competition limit a population growth?
There is a limit to available resources and all organisms in an ecosystem compete for those resources. Those that are better adapted, will obtain higher amounts of those resources leaving less for those that do not have the best abilities. These organisms that did not obtain all the resources they needed will die therefore controlling population growth.
What are the five limiting factors to a populations growth?
A limiting factor is a factor that inhibits the growth of organisms within an ecosystem. Some examples include:DiseaseTemperatureWater availabilityFood availabilityShelter availability: space
HOW CAN FOOD AND WATER LIMIT POPULATION GROWTH?
DADDY
What is most likely to limit human population growth-?
Birth Control is what is most likely to limit human population growth.
A model of population growth that assumes that finite resource levels limit population growth?
Logistic Model
The is the point at which environmental resources limit population growth.?
The ___________ is the point at which environmental resources limit population growth.
What limits population growth?
Shorter life expectancy, incurable disease, over population and not enough food can limit population growth
What factors limit the growth of population?
Population growth is limited by the ability of the natural environment to sustain it. It can be limited by food shortages or a lack of shelter. Disease outbreaks can also limit population growth.
What factor limits the growth of the prey population?
T amount of available food and the population of carnivours
Which abiotic factors limit growth in populations?
Abiotic- Sunlight, water, temperature, and living space Biotic- predators and symbiosis
Describe one of the limiting factors and describe how it limits population growth?
human population has been growing rapidly since before the year 1000 but human population does not have a limit to how high it goes but it's us that gives it a small limit of what it can cope with, food production, waste produce, crime rate, health service are all at risk of over population so the population only has a small limit and we are the only ones that give it the limit!
A growth pattern in which population size stabilizes at a maximum limit?
Logistic
Name two types of natural disasters that you think can also limit population growth?
weather,growth
What causes poor water supply?
(1) a high rate of population growth, (2) lack of investments in water supply infrastructure, and (3) the upper limit imposed by the availability of water sources.
