Question
What will happen if any of the limiting factor changes?
- Population will increase
- Population will decrease
- Population will increase or decrease
- None of the above
Hint:
There can be many different limiting factors at work in a single habitat, and the same limiting factors can affect the populations of both plant and animal species. Ultimately, limiting factors determine a habitat's carrying capacity, which is the maximum size of the population it can support.
The correct answer is: Population will increase or decrease
If any of the limiting factors change, animal and plant populations change, too. Some changes may cause a population to increase. If there are more plants than usual in an area, populations of animals that eat that plant may increase.
