population density
The maximum number of individuals a species can support in a given area is known as its carrying capacity. This limit is determined by factors such as available resources (food, water, shelter), competition with other species, and environmental conditions. As the population approaches its carrying capacity, individuals may experience increased competition and resource scarcity, which can lead to a decrease in population growth or even a decline in numbers.
Population
That group of organisms of a certain species in one area at a given time is known as a population. A population consists of individuals of the same species that can interbreed and share a common gene pool.
Change in a population over a given period of time refers to the increase or decrease in the number of individuals within that population. This change is influenced by factors such as birth rates, death rates, immigration, and emigration. Studying population changes can provide insights into trends, challenges, and opportunities for a given area or species.
It is called population density.
Carrying capacity
population density
a critical number is the minimum number of individuals of a given species that is required to maintain a healthy population. if a population goes down below thew critical number then it will become extinct
A community is larger than a species population. A community consists of interacting populations of different species within a given area, while a species population refers to the total number of individuals of a single species in a specific area.
The taxonomic level with the greatest number of species for a given genus is the order.
They form a population.
for an individual, no for a species, yes the DNA in individuals of a given species does contain information about the evolutionary past of that species
population density
The maximum number of individuals a species can support in a given area is known as its carrying capacity. This limit is determined by factors such as available resources (food, water, shelter), competition with other species, and environmental conditions. As the population approaches its carrying capacity, individuals may experience increased competition and resource scarcity, which can lead to a decrease in population growth or even a decline in numbers.
This is a "keystone" species.
Biodiversity is the variety and number of species in a given area.
