Populations can be of the same size, but they may have different densities.
When we consider the number of individuals per unit area, we are referring to
the density of the population.
In formula,
Population Density = number of individuals
Size of the area
Differences in population density in any community may be attributed to many
factors. Population sizes change when new members move into the
ecosystem. They decrease when members move out of an ecosystem. The
birth rate and death rates can also affect a population’s size. Anything that
limits the size of a population like certain environmental conditions are called
limiting factors.

Limiting factors keep a population from increasing in size and help balance an
ecosystem. Examples of limiting factors are the availability of food, water, and
living conditions. Light, temperature and soil nutrients are also limiting factors
because they help determine the types of organisms that can live in an
ecosystem.
The maximum population size an environment can support is called its
carrying capacity. If the population size rises above the carrying capacity,
organisms die because they cannot meet all their needs.

1. Study the three patterns of
population distribution in Figure 4.
2. Using the given formula for
computing population density,
calculate the density of each
population.
Density = number of individuals
Size of area
3. Count the total number for
each population. Record the
number in the table.
4. On a sheet of paper, prepare a
table to record the data for
population density.

5. Calculate the density of each
population. Record it in the table.

I. Answer briefly the following questions in your answer sheet:
1. If the population species of a given area is doubled, what effect
would this have on the resources of the community?
2. In a population, limiting factors and population density are often
related. Suppose that the population density of plant seedlings in an
area is very high, explain how limiting factors may affect population
density.
