What happens when a population reaches its carrying capacity

The population doesn’t grow(increase) anymore and the number of organisms stay at about that point(the carrying capacity).
Nimfa-mama [501]3 years ago

Answer:

When the population reaches its carrying capacity, natural resources become scarce and the members of that population end up dying or moving to another location.

Explanation:

A population reaches its carrying capacity when the number of births is equal to the number of deaths and the environment in which this species lives is no longer able to support the number of members of that population.

As a result, natural resources end up becoming increasingly scarce and there is a very large competition for habitat. As a result, many members of this population end up dying or moving until the population is again able to be in balance with the environment in which they live.

I would say A) Coevolution because the two species would evolve in response to one another. Flowers and their pollinators must evolve together. For example, if the flower has a mutation that no longer attracts the bumblebees, it will not reproduce. Then the hummingbird would have to find a new food source.

Do you think one reproductive process promotes higher genetic variation than the other?
Alina [70]
Sexual reproduction produces far more genetic variation than asexual reproduction. I’m asexual reproduction, only one organism is needed. In this process they copy their own DNA and create an exact copy of themselves. So, if you think about it, all the offspring ever created by that one organism is going to have the same genetics as it. They’re all going to be identical. There is no variation, or differences, between any of the offspring and the original organism. Bacteria reproduces this way, although through binary fission, they can sort of reproduce sexually.
Sexual reproduction results in genetic variation. Two organisms are needed to create offspring. An egg cell and a sperm cell are needed from a female and male organism to create the new organism. Since two organisms are required, their offspring will be a mix of their DNA. This will create variation between offspring. Every new organism will have different genetics.
This is why more advanced organisms like plants and animals have different DNA even if they are the same species.
