Question

environmental factors set limits on the growth of populations. what is this limit referred to?
carrying capacity
tipping point
population density
total fertility rate

Explanation:

Carrying capacity is defined as the maximum number of individuals of a population that an environment can sustainably support, limited by environmental factors like food, space, and resources. A tipping point refers to a threshold where a small change causes a large, irreversible shift in a system. Population density is the number of individuals per unit area. Total fertility rate is the average number of children a woman would have over her lifetime, which relates to population growth rate, not the environmental limit on population size.

Answer:

A. Carrying capacity
