Exponential population growth: population growth under ideal conditions
Carrying Capacity: the maximum population size that a certain environment can support at a particular time.
Biotic and Abiotic influences on populations
Density Dependent: death rises; population density rises. (i.e. competition resources)
Density Independent: death rate doesn’t change with population density (i.e. natural disasters)
Abiotic Factors:
temperature- water - freshwater vs. saltwater
- sunlight
- wind
- soil and rocks - nutrients
