Explain how limiting factor may affect your terrarium​

Biology

Answer:

A limiting factor is anything that constrains a population's size and slows or stops it from growing. Some examples of limiting factors are biotic, like food, mates, and competition with other organisms for resources. Others are abiotic, like space, temperature, altitude, and amount of sunlight available in an environment. Limiting factors are usually expressed as a lack of a particular resource. For example, if there are not enough prey animals in a forest to feed a large population of predators, then food becomes a limiting factor. Likewise, if there is not enough space in a pond for a large number of fish, then space becomes a limiting factor. There can be many different limiting factors at work in a single habitat, and the same limiting factors can affect the populations of both plant and animal species. Ultimately, limiting factors determine a habitat's carrying capacity, which is the maximum size of the population it can support.

Find out which animal is actually most closely related to the hawk: shark, bat, or alligator. Report your findings and explanati
allsm [11]

Hi, In my opinion, <u>bat</u> will be the most closely related to hawk.

<h2>Why?</h2>

This is because, when we consider the photo of a bat and a hawk, we notice the similarities like:-

• Wings- They have nearly the same short wings decreasing the area of contact with air and enabling higher flight area.

• Presence of small snouted beak-like structure and presence of less or more similar color.

• Both live in trees and are normally not companiable with humans.

• Hawks and bats are both having a similar anatomy, not body, I meant that they have similar positioning of organs like stomach, pancreas etc.

• They have the sense of locating prey miles away, enabling easier locating of food.

Hope this helps...
