The

medium
deer

that
would
serve
as
an
indicator
that
the

v
The
response
explains
why
the
density
of
the
deer
population
will
reach
a
level
where
the
density
will
not
increase
further,
such
as
one
of
the
following:
-
The
deer
will
deplete
the
ecosystem
of
resources
and
the
population
will
level off
as
it
reaches
the
carrying
capacity
of
the
ecosystem.
-
The
deer
will
deplete
the
ecosystem
of
resources
and
the
population
will
overshoot
the
carrying capacity
of
the
ecosystem
leading
to
a
rapid
population
decline
or
crash.
Deer
compete
for
a
limited
number
of
resources
in
the
ecosystem,
which
limits
the
amount
of
deer
that
can
survive.
