Engagement The class starts with a prayer, followed by the checking of attendance and lastly the
( Awareness) recapitulation.

Exploration 1. What is population?

(Activity) Ans: Population is the total number of organisms belonging to the same species in a
particular environment.
2. What is population density?
Ans: Population Density is the measurement of population per unit area.
3. What is limiting factor?
Ans: Limiting factors control the growth of a population.
Explanation 1. What is carrying capacity?
( Analysis & Ans: Carrying capacity is the maximum number of organisms that an
Abstraction) environment can support.
2. What are the two factors that affect population growth?
Ans: The two factors that affect population growth are density-independent
limiting factor and density-dependent limiting factor.
3. What is the difference between density-independent limiting factor and
density-dependent limiting factor?
Ans: Density-dependent limiting factor is a factor that regulates population
growth and is influenced by population density while density-independent
limiting factor is when population’s density does not directly influence
changes in population’s growth.
Elaboration Density-dependent limiting factor is a factor that regulates population growth and is influenced by
(Application) population density while Density-independent limiting factor is when population’s density does not
directly influence changes in population’s growth.
 Evaluation The students answer the exercises in the textbook pages 332-334.
