Biology Chapter 5: Populations

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 area is called

• Demography

• Carrying Capacity

• Immigration

• Emigration

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

A limiting factor that depends on population size is called a

• Density Dependent Limiting Factor

• Density Independent Limiting Factor

• Predator Prey Relationship

• Parasitic Relationship

One example of a density-independent limiting factor is?

• Predation

• Hurricanes

• Competition

• Parasitism

The scientific study of human populations is called

• Immigration

• Emigration

• Demographic Transition

• Demography

The demographic transition is considered complete when

• Population Growth Stops

• The Birth Rate Is Higher Then The Death Rate

• The Death Rate Begins To Fall

• The Death Rate Is Greater Then The Birth Rate

All other things being equal the size of a population will decrease if

• Birthrate Exceeds The Deathrate

• Immigration Rate Exceeds Emigration Rates

• Deathrates Exceed Birthrates

• Birthrate =s Deathrate
