Hello there.
00:03
So i see i have a question where we're looking at this graph that shows the population growth in an area.
00:10
And they want to know which of these could cause this population to stop increasing or stabilizing.
00:17
Is it increasing ratio of space to individuals in the population or decreasing ratio of predators and prey in the population? or increasing ratios of offspring to parent in a population or decreasing ratio of food to individuals in a population.

Okay, so when we look at something like this graph right here, when it starts to stabilize, they usually stabilize to try to keep the population stable, and they usually do that because it might involve with the limited amount of resources.
01:05
And these resources could involve, you know, water, food, or shelter.
01:11
So in a sense, i kind of basically gave the answer away.
01:16
So when you see something like this, it's not really the decrease of predators and prey, and it's not really increasing ratios of offspring to parents...
