1: species that are adapted to live in equilibrium at carrying capacity

K-selected

There are two types of specie based on the strategies they use for the reproduction, growth and survival. K and r selected species. The alphabet K simply indicate the carrying capacity or the number of individuals that can be supported by the habitat and available resources.

Some important traits of K selected organisms include: Low reproductive rate,Low offspring mortality, Strong competitive ability, Good parental care,Limited offspring dispersal and Strong competitive ability.

2.population growth that reaches equilibrium and carrying capacitypopulation

logistic growth

Logistic growth is the type of growth pattern in which when the population reaches carrying capacity the growth rate of the population decreases. Carrying capacity is the highest number of organisms of a population that the environment can support.

3.death rate

Mortality or mortality rate is typically expressed in terms of deaths per 1,000 individuals per year; so, a mortality rate of 9.5 (out of 1,000) in a population of 1,000 would mean 9.5 deaths per year in that entire population, or 0.95% out of the total.

4.birth rate

natality

Birth rate or natality is simply indicative of number of individuals born per thousand of population per year.

5.a group of interacting individuals of the same species within the same geographic area

population

For example, a population of sparrows living on a certain area make a population of that area.

6.the number of organisms living in a particular area

population density

Population density is indicative of the number of population per unit area. For example: If there are 2000 human population living in an area of 25 sq km, the population density will be population divided by area, that will be equal to 80.
