which type of limiting factor was hurricane katrina?
density-independent factor
density-dependent factor
population-dependent factor
population-independent factor

Explanation:

Density-independent factors are environmental events that affect a population regardless of its size or density. Hurricanes are natural disasters that impact areas and populations uniformly, no matter how large or small the local population is. Density-dependent and population-dependent factors rely on population size, while "population-independent factor" is not a standard ecological term for this concept.

Answer:

density-independent factor
