What is the problem of a growing population?

Population growth should be limited by the ability of the ability of the land's resources to sustain it. One way or another, it will be limited by those factors, either through planning or through human disaster.


Sparsely areas or countries of the world?

Some sparsely populated areas in the world include parts of Siberia in Russia, the Australian Outback, and the Sahara Desert in Africa. Countries like Mongolia and Namibia also have low population densities compared to their size. These regions often have harsh environments or limited resources, which contribute to their low population numbers.


Most of the islands of the Caribbean are heavily populated.?

Yes, many Caribbean islands have high population densities due to factors such as tourism, economic opportunities, and historical settlements. However, some islands have lower populations due to their size, geography, or limited resources.


What will happen if the population is more than the resources is the country has?

Probably the country would have a hard time trying to stabilize its economy and such because the higher the population, the more resources are to be used. And the more resources are used the less resources there will be in the future. The counrty would be forced to borrow some resources/funds from the World Bank, thus resulting in the inflation of taxes and such cousing the country to be a "poor and struggling" one.


What kind of resources do islands have?

Islands can have various resources such as marine resources (fish, seaweed), mineral resources (sand, gravel), agricultural resources (fruits, vegetables), and renewable energy sources (wind, solar). However, the availability and type of resources can vary depending on the size, location and geological characteristics of the island.

What are 3 limiting factors for population?

Limited resources such as food, water, and shelter can restrict population growth. Competition for resources among individuals can also limit population size. Predation, disease, and availability of mates can further control population growth.


What has the human population done to natural resources?

The human population has used natural resources. Some say the population has depleted, or nearly depleted, some natural resources, but others deny that.


What kind of limiting factor depends on the population size?

Density-dependent limiting factors, such as competition for resources, predation, disease, and parasitism, depend on the population size. As the population size increases, the impact of these factors may also increase, leading to adjustments in population growth and dynamics.


Why are some resources more likely to act as limiting factors when a population is nearing the carrying capacity?

When a population is nearing its carrying capacity, resources like food, water, and shelter can become more limited. This is because as the population approaches its maximum sustainable size, competition for these resources increases, leading to some resources becoming scarce. This scarcity can then act as a limiting factor, affecting the population growth and potentially leading to a decrease in the population size.


What are limiting factored for humans?

Control of population growth is based upon limiting factors and population interactions in each ecosystem. These are resources such as food, water, oxygen, and space availability.


What are some examples of density dependent population regulation factors?

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.


What are some of the resources of a city?

Some resources of a city include human capital (population), infrastructure (roads, utilities), natural resources (water, land), economic resources (businesses, industries), and social resources (schools, hospitals).


What are some obstacles to controlling population size?

Why cant the human population keep growing exponentially forever?

Population growth is limited by the supply of resources. At some point there will no longer be enough resources, such as land, fresh water, top soil to grow food in, fuel to transport the food, building materials etc to support the growing population.


What is the definition of sample size in math?

The sample size is the number of elements, out of a population, for which some data are measured in order to make assessments about the population.


Can competition between species affect population size?

If the amount of available nesting space is limited, some woodpeckers will not be able to raise young. My Science teacher told me the answer.


What factors influence population size?

The basic needs like food, shelter are some of the factors that affect the population's growth regardless of the size.
