AGENDA:

Objectives: Be able to (1) classify examples of factors that limit a population’s growth as either density-independent or density-dependent, (2) predict what will happen to a population’s size based on changes to growth / birth rates, migration in or out, (3) interpret two different graphs of population growth

Warm-up: What are some factors that will affect (positively and negatively) the growth rates and numbers of plants growing in our garden? Make a list of as many as you can think of in 3 minutes and then identify each factor as biotic or abiotic [10]
