Answer 2

EXPLANATION:

Those factors which limits the population without bothering the size of the ‘population’ is called as density-independent factors. The effect of ‘density-independent’ limiting factors in population is such that it may cause drastic effect upon it.

For example, natural disaster is a ‘density-independent’ limiting factor which kills many people without considering the density or size of the population. It is a sudden unexpected event which may cause huge loss to lives of living species.
