Which situation illustrates the relationship between a limiting factor and population density?

• When birth rate is greater than death rate, population increases

• When the population in a given area increases, the population density also increases.

• Population sizes change with the number of births or when organisms move out of an ecosystem.

• When the population of goats and cows in a field increases rapidly, there may not be enough food for each of them.

Which could you infer about an ecosystem with high species diversity?

• Its food webs are relatively simple.

• It has a greater number of successful species and a more stable ecosystem.
