Answer:
density independent
Explanation:
In Ecology, density independent factors are limiting factors that do not depend on the size of a population to affect such population. Examples of density independent limiting factors are fire outbreak, earthquake and other natural disasters.
According to this question, since density independent factors influence a population irrespective of its density, it will affect a larger population than a smaller population. For example, a fire outbreak will likely burn a large part of the population, if not all.
When bacteria decompose, they leave behind nutrients. These nutrient then filter unto the roots of the plants via the water that it sucks up. A loss in certain nutrients could be the death of this plant.
