Minchanka [31]

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

Carrying capacity can be defined as the total number of members of the population of a species that an ecosystem can sustain in terms of providing resources in the form of food, shelter and others. When the resources are available in surplus then the population of a species increases exponentially but declines when resources become scarce. The human population is increasing tremendously all over the world this is supported by the resources like food, water, fossil fuels, air, minerals, and others.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Height is affected by multiple pairs of genes on different chromosomes.

Explanation:  

The quantitative traits are those whose inheritance pattern is the result of the action of multiple genes that act together with the environment. The distribution of quantitative traits in the population follows a bell-shaped curve, which is referred to as normal distribution or Gaussian distribution. These traits are 'quantitative' because they vary among individuals in the population to produce a continuous range of phenotypic values. Examples of quantitative traits include, among others, metabolic rate, height, and weight.
