| 15432914156 | Three types of population distribution | Random, Uniform, Clumped | 0 | |
| 15432914157 | Density Dependent Factor | A factor that influences an individuals probability of survival and reproduction in a manner that depends on the size of the population (i.e. predation, disease, food supply) | 1 | |
| 15432914158 | Density Independent Factor | A factor that has the same effect on a individual's probability of survival and reproduction at any populations size | 2 | |
| 15432914159 | exponential growth models | occurs when populations are not limited by resources. (J-curve) |  | 3 |
| 15432914160 | logistical growth model | occurs when populations reach a carrying capacity established by a limiting resource and initially experience large growth but then level off. However, they do not exist exactly at carrying capacity. They fluctuate above and below. |  | 4 |
| 15432914161 | Type I, II, III Curves | reproductive strategies of different species. Type I fosters their young, Type II does sorta kinda, and type III straight up ditches their kids |  | 5 |
| 15432914162 | K selective strategies | A species with a low intrinsic growth rate that causes the population to increase slowly until it reaches carrying capacity (TYPE I) | 6 | |
| 15432914163 | R selective strategies | A species with a high intrinsic growth rate that causes the population to overshoot and quickly die off (TYPE III) | 7 | |
| 15432914164 | Population size | The total number of individuals within a defined area at a given time | 8 | |
| 15432914165 | Population density | The number of individuals per unit area at a given time | 9 | |
| 15432914166 | Population distribution | How individuals are distributed with respect to one another | 10 | |
| 15432914167 | Population age structure | how many individuals fit into age categories. Shown by age structure diagrams |  | 11 |
| 15432914168 | Growth Rate | The number of offspring an individual can produce in a given period of time, minus the deaths of the individual or offspring during the same period | 12 | |
| 15432914170 | Competition | The struggle of individuals to obtain a limiting resource | 13 | |
| 15432914180 | Community Ecology | The study of the interactions between species in a habitat | 14 | |
| 15432914186 | How does the human population not have a food deficit? | Innovation and Technology | 15 | |
| 15432914187 | growth rate equation | CBR-CDR/10 | 16 | |
| 15432914188 | doubling time for a population equation | 70/growth rate | 17 | |
| 15432914190 | Total Fertility Rate (TFR) | estimate of the average number of children each woman will bear in her lifetime | 18 | |
| 15432914191 | Replacement level fertility (RLF) | 2.1 | 19 | |
| 15432914192 | Developed Countries | Countries with high levels of industrialization and income | 20 | |
| 15432914193 | Developing Countries | Countries with relatively low levels of industrialization and income | 21 | |
| 15432914195 | Infant Mortality Rate | Number of deaths of children under the age of one per 1000 births | 22 | |
| 15432914197 | Demographic Transition | The theory that as a country moves from a subsistence economy to and industrialized one, it undergoes a predictable shift in population growth | 23 | |
| 15432914198 | Family Planning | Regulating the number or spacing of children through the use of birth control | 24 | |
| 15432995625 | 2 indicators of overall health in a country | life expectancy and infant mortality rate | 25 | |

| 15433015824 | Generalist | a species with a broad niche that can tolerate a wide range of conditions and can use a variety of resources | 27 | |
| 15433020641 | Specialist | A consumer that primarily eats one specific organism or feeds on a very small number of organisms. | 28 | |
| 15433031245 | Biotic Potential | The maximum rate at which a population could increase under ideal conditions | 29 | |
| 15433035750 | Ecological Footprint | the impact of a person or community on the environment, expressed as the amount of land required to sustain their use of natural resources. | 30 | |
| 15433045055 | limiting factor | Any biotic or abiotic factor that restricts the existence, numbers, reproduction, or distribution of organisms. | 31 |
