How do limiting factors most affect population size?
A. stop population growth
B. restrict population growth
C. increase population growth
D. decrease population growth
Answer (2)
Limiting factors are environmental constraints that affect population size by restricting growth. They can be density-dependent or independent and often prevent populations from growing indefinitely. The most accurate choice regarding their effect on population size is that they 'restrict population growth.' ;
Limiting factors are environmental conditions that restrict how much a population can grow, influencing survival and reproduction. They can be density-dependent or independent and impose challenges that lead to a balanced population size. The correct choice regarding their effect on population size is B. restrict population growth.
