Why is the control of water an important political issue in eastern mediterranean?
Water is scarce in the region and therefore a precious commodity. Control of the existing water sources such as rivers can cause political problems when one country diverts water sources that are also needed by other countries.
Is a garter snake an endothermic vertebrate?
No...all reptiles are exothermic. This means they get their heat from an outside source such as the sun. This is needed in order to maintain the proper temperature for metabolizing food. This is why, when food is scarce and light is not as available (winter), they hibernate. They don't have the energy to digest food(if they find it) in the low sun conditions.
What kind of factor is it when food becomes scarce that it prevents population growth?
limiting factor
A resource so scarce that it limits the size of a population is called a?
a limiting factor
Compare exponential growth with logistic growth?
Exponential growth occurs when numbers increase by a certain factor in each successive time period. Logistic growth is population growth that starts with a minimum number of individuals and reaches a maximum depending on the carrying capacity of the habitat. In exponential growth population grows slowly when it's small, but as the population gets larger, growth speeds up. In logistic growth, when the population is small, the growth rate is fast because there are plenty of natural resources. (Logistic) As the population approaches the carrying capacity, resources become scarce. Completion for food, shelter and mates increases between individuals of a population. As a result, the growth rate slows. Exponential growth, grows fast in the beginning and then slows down. Logistic growth grows slow in the beginning and then speeds up.
What did Darwin think limits the growth of populations?
It has to do with Natural selection and if the food is scarce then the population would die out and lead to extinction. So what limits the growth of populations is the food supply.

Land is, by nature, finite. However, I believe that entrepreneurship is probably the most scarce of the four factors.
When a needed resource in an ecosystem becomes scarce it is called?
A limiting factor
Describe how limiting factors can affect a population?
Limiting factors are environmental conditions that restrict the growth, abundance, or distribution of a population. These factors can include resources like food, water, space, or shelter, as well as predation, disease, or competition with other species. When a limiting factor becomes scarce, it can lead to reduced reproductive success, increased mortality, or migration of individuals, ultimately affecting the population's size and health.
What is it called when resources become scarce and the retail prices rise?
a limiting factor
What are the criticisms of malthus theory on population?
The Anti-Malthusian theory is the idea that survival supplies will not run scarce and the population of the world will control itself naturally.
A nutrient that is scarce or cycle slowly through an ecosystem is called?
the substance is a limiting factor, but im not sure at all__________________________________________orLimiting nutrient- single nutrient that either is scarce or cycles very slowly, limiting the growth of organisms in an ecosystem.
What is the problem assiciated with a declining population size?
scarce food supplies
Why is housing scarce in Cairo?
