Density-Independent Factors
If Cyrus wants to describe a population properly what are the 5 factors he should describe ?
geographic range, age structure, growth rate, density and distribution .
Characterized by an S-shaped growth curve this type of population growth occurs in environments where resources are limited
logistic growth.
Competition, parasitism and disease, stress from overcrowding, predation and herbivory are examples of
density dependent factors.
Define emigration
when individuals move away from a population.
RNA molecule involved in protein synthesis as a component of ribosomes
rRNA
What is carrying capacity?

The process of synthesizing proteins from mRNA, tRNA and rRNA
Define population density
refers to the number of individuals per unit area.
