Population density = number of individual / Unit Area
Example : there are 30 butterflies in a garden 10
square meter. What is the population density? The density of population can be count with the formula; The number of same species Density of population = Width of area (m2) e.g. In a field with the width is 100 m2 could be found 50 cows, 300 sheeps, 50 trees of banana, 3000 stem grasses. How much the density of each population?
50 The density of cow = 100
= 1/2m2 (each cow has 2m2 area of live)
Limiting factors Factor that controls growth of a population. Predator-Prey Relationships
