1. Biodiversity is important to humans for many reasons. Ecological life support— biodiversity provides functioning ecosystems that supply oxygen, clean air and water, pollination of plants, pest control, wastewater treatment and many ecosystem services.
2. The common limiting factors in an ecosystem are food, water, habitat, and mate. The availability of these factors will affect the carrying capacity of an environment. As population increases, food demand increases as well. Since food is a limited resource, organisms will begin competing for it.
3. The formula for population density is Dp= N/A, where Dp is the population density, N is the total population, and A is the land area covered by the population. For human populations, A is typically expressed as square miles or square kilometers.
