KEY CONCEPT Populations grow in predictable patterns.

14.4 Population and Growth Patterns
Changes in a population’s size are determined by immigration, births, emigration, and deaths.
• The size of a population is always changing.
• Four factors affect the size of a population. – immigration – births – emigration – deaths

14.4 Population and Growth Patterns
Population growth is based on available resources.
• Exponential growth is a rapid population increase due to an abundance of resources.

14.4 Population and Growth Patterns
• Logistic growth is due to a population facing limited resources.

14.4 Population and Growth Patterns
• Carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals in a population that the environment can support.
• A population crash is a dramatic decline in the size of a population over a short period of time.

14.4 Population and Growth Patterns
Ecological factors limit population growth.
• A limiting factor is something that keeps the size of a population down.
• Density-dependent limiting factors are affected by the number of individuals in a given area.

14.4 Population and Growth Patterns
• Density-dependent limiting factors are affected by the number of individuals in a given area.
– parasitism and disease
– predation – competition

14.4 Population and Growth Patterns
• Density-independent limiting factors limit a population’s growth regardless of the density. – unusual weather – natural disasters – human activities
