Question

New York City has 2,181 inhabitants per square mile. The state of Alaska has 1.03 inhabitants per square mile. Ecologists would say Alaska has a low _____.
exponential growth
population density
birth rate
carrying capacity

Answer 1

I'm assuming it would be Population Density. My class never covered this subject greatly, but the definition is "Population density is a measurement of population per unit area or unit volume;" which sounds like what you are looking for.

Hope this helps!
