Populations
A collection of individuals of a
single
species within a specific
area
over a specific
point
in
time
Populations are
DYNAMIC
(ie. change over time) and can grow rapidly under
ideal
conditions.
Two types of Growth:
Exponential
growth
Logistic
Growth
Exponential Growth
Populations grow at a
constant
rate, with no
limiting
factors
Logistic Growth
A population grows at a
decreasing
rate as it approaches its
carrying capacity.
Carrying Capacity
The maximum population possible depends on the limited resources.
Is a form of density dependence.
Can limit population growth
Density
Dependence
Population
dynamics, which are influenced by populations
density
or
size.
Influenced by biotic factors
Density Independent factors
Factors that impact a population regardless of density or size
Can be abiotic factors or random events
Can have positive or negative results
