Question
Which of the following is used to calculate maximum load of an environment?
- Calculating capacity
- Population capacity
- Converting capacity
- Carrying capacity
Hint:
The carrying capacity of an area determines the size of the population that can exist or will be tolerated there. Biological carrying capacity is an equilibrium between the availability of habitat and the number of animals of a given species the habitat can support over time.
The correct answer is: Carrying capacity
- Carrying capacity can be defined as a species' average population size in a particular habitat.
- The species' population size is limited by environmental factors like adequate food, shelter, water, and mates.
- If these needs are not met, the population will decrease until the resource rebounds.
- In nature, the population of a given area may reach carrying capacity when the maximum population size is reached for a given area with limited resources. For example, a pond inhabited initially by ten turtles will be sustainable for the species' population.
