There are many factors that can influence a population's growth. These can be classified as either density-dependent or density-independent factors. For each of the following, determine if they are a density-dependent or density-independent factor. Think before you drop - This is an all or nothing type of question.

Population Growth

R and K Selection

R and K selection are concepts in ecology used to describe traits in the fluctuation of a population or population dynamics. For example, they describe the life-association traits between parent and offspring, such as quantity or number of young ones born at a time, quality of parental care, the age to maturity, and reproductive effort.
