How Populations Grow

The number of individuals of a single species per unit area is known as__

• carrying capacity

• logistic growth

• population density

• population growth rate

The movement of individuals into an areas is called

• demography

• immigration

• emigration

• carrying capacity

The area inhabited by a population is known as its

• growth rate

• geographic range

• age structure

• population density

The maximum number of organisms of a particular species that can be supported by an environment is called

• logistic growth

• carrying capacity

• exponential growth

• population density

The graph shown represent

• carrying capacity

• exponential growth

• logistic growth

• age structure
