What is population inversion?

Inverse population density is when the population density decreases, the population growth rate also decreases. This is opposite to density dependent because here the population growth rate decreaes as population density increases.


What are the two types of measurable population density?

The two typesof population growth are, Logistic Growth and Exponential Growth


What is a density dependant limitation on population growth?

competition


Most density-dependent factors that affect population growth are?

competition for resources, predation, disease, and parasitism. These factors tend to have a stronger effect on population growth as population density increases.

What factors affecting population growth is density independent?

Predation


What is an example of a density-dependent factor and a density-independent factor and how each can affect a populations growth.?

An example of a density-dependent factor is competition for resources, such as food or space, which becomes more intense as a population increases, potentially leading to decreased growth rates or population decline. Conversely, a density-independent factor is a natural disaster, like a hurricane or wildfire, which can affect a population's growth regardless of its size by causing widespread mortality or habitat destruction. Both factors can significantly influence population dynamics, either by limiting growth as density increases or by causing sudden declines irrespective of population density.


What is a population in which exponential growth is limited by a density dependent factor?

the answer must be exponential growth model.


Which is not a density dependent factor limiting population growth?

Abiotic factors such as temperature or rainfall are not density-dependent factors limiting population growth. These factors do not change in intensity depending on the size of the population.


What does contracting population mean?

A decrease in overall population/population density.


What does density-dependent limiting factors mean?

Density-dependent limiting factors are factors that limit the growth of a population based on the population density. These factors become more impactful as population density increases, such as competition for resources, predation, and disease transmission. They help regulate population size by exerting stronger effects when the population is large and resources are scarce.


Characteristics of a population regarding its size growth or density is called?
