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]
