Which one of these is a DENSITY-DEPENDENT limiting factor?

• disease

• natural disasters

• climate

• pollution

When a species' population becomes larger than the carrying capacity.

• logistic growth

• species richness

• overpopulation

Climate is mostly made up of a region's

• temperature & precipitation

• latitude & altitude

• temperature & wind

• animals & plants

A species that is found in only one specific region

• extinct species

• endemic species
