Carrying Capacity
• It’s the maximum population that an environment can sustain.
• Seychelles Paradise Flycatcher needs one acre of mixed forest per breeding pair. They live on the little island of Madagascar

4 factors that determine carrying capacity
• 1) MATERIALS & ENERGY
• Limited by the quantity of light. energy
• Amount of water, carbon & other materials

Predation
• Prey have developed defence mechanisms to prevent them from getting eaten:– Poison– Mimicry– Camouflage– Armour– Secretions

4 factors that determine carrying capacity
• 3) Competition
• For food, water, mates & space.
• Intraspecific Competition: Between individuals of the same species.
• Interspecific Competition: Between different species.

4 factors that determine carrying capacity
• 4) Population Density : Number of individuals that are living in the same place at the same time.

Density dependent Factors• When the density has gone
beyond an appropriate level • Over-population can:
– Increase stress & lead to the easier spread of diseases and parasites
– Increases aggressions & causes parents to neglect offspring
• So, then the population will decrease

Density Independent Factors
Limits the population- no matter what the density is.
-Forest fires
-Earthquakes
-Volcanic Eruptions
-Tornadoes
