Logistic ModelLogistic Model
Populations are limited by their Populations are limited by their environmentenvironment
Any factor that limits population Any factor that limits population growth is called a limiting factorgrowth is called a limiting factor
Limiting factors include things like Limiting factors include things like food, habitat availability, water, food, habitat availability, water, predatorspredators

Population FluctuationsPopulation Fluctuations
1.1. Density-independent factors- reduce Density-independent factors- reduce population by the same proportion population by the same proportion regardless of population size; ex. Cold regardless of population size; ex. Cold winter effects the squirrel populationwinter effects the squirrel population
– It doesn’t matter the size of the populationIt doesn’t matter the size of the population
2. Density-dependent factors- resource 2. Density-dependent factors- resource limits due to increase in population limits due to increase in population density; ex. Shortage of food due to too density; ex. Shortage of food due to too many deer in the area causes some deer many deer in the area causes some deer to starve. to starve.
