What is most likely when a population exceeds carrying capacity? is it deaf rates equal but will exceed birth rates? this is impossible.
00:11
Population will continue to grow.
00:13
Birth and integration will be equal, or all of these are equally possible.
00:18
Okay, so first of all, what is carrying capacity? well, carrying capacity is the highest sustainable population.
00:29
So maximum, sustainable.
00:34
Population.
00:38
So when you have a population, if there are no limits on it, it's going to start growing.
00:44
So we have a population, it grows, and then the growth slows, and it evens out.
00:51
And this is going to happen at carrying capacity.
00:54
So what's happened is they've had lots of offspring and they've raised their offspring, the population has grown until it hits a limit.
01:02
And that limit might be caused by perhaps resources.
01:05
Maybe this environment only has enough food to feed a particular number of individuals.
01:10
So here's a point where they've got just enough individuals to be fed.
01:15
But what does this really mean? well it means that at this point, the birth and death rates are equal, and that's what keeps the population the same.
01:24
So these aren't all the same individuals...
