Populations vs. Communities• What is the difference between a
biological population and a biological community?
• A biological population is “a group of organisms of one species that interbreed and live in the same place at the same time,” while a biological community is “a group of interdependent organisms living and interacting with each other in the same habitat.”

Limiting Factors• Do populations often grow
exponentially?• What are limiting factors?
– Limiting factors are any factors (things) that affect an organism’s ability to survive in its environment. These factors affect population growth.
• Examples?– Availability of food and water,
predators, temperature, space/shelter, and disease

Density-Dependent Factors
• What are density-dependent factors?– Factors that depend upon the size of
the population. These factors will have an increasing effect as the population size increases.
• Examples?– Availability of food and water,
competition, predators, and disease

Competition• What is competition?
– Competition is “a symbiotic relationship between or among living things for resources, such as food, space, shelter, mate, ecological status, etc.”.
• Examples?– Trees that grow very close together vie
for sunlight and soil nutrients, lions and tigers that vie for similar prey, and a farm of rice paddies with weeds
growing in the field

Competition• What happens to competition
between individuals as population size increases?
– Competition will also increase. – If the demand for resources exceeds
the supply, then the population size will eventually decrease.

Density-Independent Factors
• What are density-independent factors?– Factors that are not dependent upon
the size of the population and can affect any population.
• Examples?– Temperature, weather (storms,
floods, drought), and habitat disruption by humans

Carrying Capacity
![Page 12: 13 14 8/31/15 Levels of Organization 8/31/15 Starter: What is an ecosystem? Practice: Notes Application: StemScopes Worksheet Connection/Exit: Your parents](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfce1a28abf838ca9acd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Carrying Capacity• Carrying capacity is the “largest
number of individuals of a particular species that can survive over long periods of time in a given environment.”
• Why is knowing carrying capacity important to ecologists?
