Parasitic disease is ___ limiting population.

• A. June 11
• B. July 11
• C. August 11
• D. September 11

Answer 1

The correct option is B

July 11

Density dependent factors are those factors that limit population when there is an increase in the population density. Since parasitic diseases and infections are communicable, they are predominant in very dense populations, therefore disease is a density dependent factor limiting population. Density independent factors are factors that are not triggered by population density, but chance occurrences like natural calamities.
