What will happen to the population if it exceeds the carrying capacity?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The population returns to the carrying capacity.

Explanation:

If a population exceeds the carrying capacity, there will not be enough resources to sustain everyone.  Since there will be shortages of food, water, or whatever limiting factor there is, some members will die out.  When enough members die and the population drops back to at or below the carrying capacity, there will be enough resources to sustain everyone again, so they stop dying.
