Question

if a population has more biotic potential than environmental resistance, what will happen to the population?
the population decreases.
the population increases.
the population fluctuates.
the population stabilizes.

Explanation:

Biotic potential refers to a population's maximum growth capacity, while environmental resistance includes factors limiting growth (e.g., resources, predators). When biotic potential exceeds environmental resistance, the population grows because its reproductive capacity outpaces limiting factors.

Answer:

B. The population increases.
