Density
refers to the number
of organisms per unit
area
“ Limiting
factors
factors that control
the growth of a
population

10
Density – Independent limiting factor

If the population’s density

does not influence changes
in population’s growth.

11
Density – dependent limiting factor

factor that regulates a

population’s growth and
is influenced by
population density

12
Carrying capacity
the maximum
number of
organisms that an
environment can
support

13
 CONCLUSION

Population growth gives us

an idea on how fast a
population changes over
time.
