What else can I help you with?
How are animals impacted by population growth?
There is more competition for resources, i.e. food and space
What things effect population numbers?
Things that effect population are competition for food, also known as survival of the fittest. Starvation, hunting, and over population.
If an ecosystem decreases in space what will happen to competition?
In population biology, carrying capacity is defined as the environment's maximal load which is different from the concept of population equilibrium.Hence, if an ecosystem decreases in space, competition will also decrease.
What is most likely the reason that deer population decreased from 1920 to 1935?
There was increased competition for food.
As a population increases there is increased competition for what factors in the environment?
Basicaly everything like food, land, water.
What is the reason for the decline of the Baltimore Checkerspot butterfly population?
Competition with deer for their food, white turtlehead plant.
What happen when two organism attempt to occupy the same niche?
When two organisms try to occupy the same niche, they will compete for the same resources like food, water, and shelter. This competition may lead to one organism outcompeting the other, leading to a decrease in population or even extinction of one species. Over time, this competition can drive evolutionary changes in the competing species to reduce competition.
When does competition decrease the size of population?
Competition can decrease the size of a population when resources become limited, increasing competition among individuals for those resources. This can lead to reduced access to food, shelter, or mates, ultimately resulting in decreased survival and reproduction rates within the population.
What happen when an organism reproduces quickly what the population?
When an organism reproduces quickly, the population increases rapidly. This can lead to competition for resources like food and space, potentially causing overcrowding. In the long term, it can result in environmental degradation and increased vulnerability to disease or predation.
What would happen if a population has plenty of food and space and has no competition or predators?
If a population has abudant space and foor, and is protected from predators and disease, then organisms in that population will multiply and the population size will increase.
What kind of competition is it when many elk compete for the same food plants?
The competition among many elk for the same food plants is known as intraspecific competition. This type of competition occurs when individuals of the same species vie for limited resources, such as food, water, or territory. Intraspecific competition can lead to increased stress, altered behavior, and changes in population dynamics as elk compete for survival and reproductive success.
What must happen if a population grows larger than the carrying capacity?
If a population grows larger than the carrying capacity, there will likely be increased competition for resources such as food, water, and space. This can lead to food scarcity, increased stress, and potentially higher mortality rates within the population. Over time, the population size may decrease as individuals struggle to survive in the limited environment.
