Density-dependent factors are factors that limit population growth such as, a natural disaster, disease, drought, fire, etc.
May I add, food supply also falls under the density-dependent factor that involves population growth. When this happens, population does not level off but usually plunges down. In the factor of disease, an example would be the Great Black Plegue in England. It wiped out many people in just weeks.
Space and food sources are density-dependent factors.
density dependent
predation, availability of food, disease, parasitism Things that depend on the size of the population, as opposed to density independent factors such as weather, and natural disasters.
When the population of similar animals increase in habitats the amount of recources become limited
dependent and subordinate
Food, water, and natural resources are the most common examples of density-dependent factors.
The two types of limiting factors are density-dependent factors, which increase in intensity as population density increases, and density-independent factors, which affect populations regardless of their density. Examples of density-dependent factors include competition for resources and disease, while examples of density-independent factors include natural disasters and climate change.
Two examples of density independent factors of the tundra biome are the extreme temperatures and the excessive winds. Two examples of density dependent factors are weather and competition between the species.
Some examples of density-dependent population regulation factors include competition for resources, predation, disease transmission, and stress from overcrowding. As population density increases, these factors can have a greater impact on the population size and dynamics.
Space and food sources are density-dependent factors.
Mass and volume are density dependent factors food supply
Space and food sources are density-dependent 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.

A density dependent factor is a limiting factor that depends on population size. A Density-independent limiting factor affects all populations in similar ways, regardless of the population size. Its in my biology book.
Density dependent limiting factors are factors that limit/change population when they reach a certain population level/density. For example: if there are too many fish in a pond, food might run out, and fish may end up dying. Some other examples are disease, food shortage, predation, competition, and lack of living space (crowding).
