Question
when a specific population grows past the ecosystems carrying capacity, what happens to the population? * 1 punto
density independent limiting factors start to occur resulting in the population going farther above carrying capacity.
density dependent limiting factors start to occur resulting in the population going back below carrying capacity.
the population will go extinct due to lack of resources
the population grows then finds a new carrying capacity
La capacidad de carga es la cantidad máxima de individuos de una población que un ecosistema puede sostener. Cuando una población supera esta capacidad, los factores limitantes dependientes de la densidad, como la competencia por recursos, la enfermedad y la predación, comienzan a operar. Estos factores limitan el crecimiento de la población y la llevan de vuelta por debajo de la capacidad de carga.
