Answer 1

Answer:

Survival depends on interaction of many factors, which can vary greatly. For each factor a given species has a range of conditions. If environmental conditions exceed upper or lower limit of tolerance, death can result.

Explanation:

This is the Shelford's law of Tolerance.

This law states that the success of distribution of an organism can be controlled by some factors like topographic, climate, and biological requirements of plants and animals, in which their levels exceed the higher or lower limits of tolerance of the organism.

This was a law proposed by V. E. Shelford in 1911.
