Question

When limiting factors exhibit pressure on a population, what happens to the growth graph?

Answer 1

Answer:

Anything that limits carrying capacity = exhibits pressure on a population

These include:

- food resources

- shelter

- population density (space)

- predation

What happens to the growth graph is that it starts leveling off and not growing at as fast of a rate. It fluctuates around the carrying capacity, k. Look at a logistic population model for more info, and your growth graph will resemble exactly that
