Population Size and Structure

Question 7 • Biology A (The Living Earth A)

Differentiate between density-dependent and density-independent limiting factors and give at least two examples from the lesson of each.

Answer

Answer:

Density-dependent limiting factors become more influential as population size or density increases. Examples include disease, parasites, competition for food, water, or shelter, and predation. Density-independent limiting factors affect populations regardless of their size. Examples include natural disasters, climate, and human activity.
