briefly describe the two patterns of population growth (S-shaped ,Boom-and bust)give one example for each pattern and then explain the following terms:carrying capacity(k),density-dependent growth factor ,zero population growth ,and density independent growth factor. pleaasss help me !!any one know!

Answer:
Density-dependent limiting factors
Explanation:
In nature, population size and growth are limited by many factors. Some are density-dependent, while others are density-independent.
Density-dependent limiting factors cause a population's per capita growth rate to change—typically, to drop—with increasing population density. One example is competition for limited food among members of a population.
Density-independent factors affect per capita growth rate independent of population density. Examples include natural disasters like forest fires.
Limiting factors of different kinds can interact in complex ways to produce various patterns of population growth. Some populations show cyclical oscillations, in which population size changes predictably in a cycle.

Answer:
about density
These density-independent factors include food or nutrient limitation, pollutants in the environment, and climate extremes, including seasonal cycles such as monsoons. In addition, catastrophic factors can also impact population growth, such as fires and hurricanes.
