Yeah I agree, but I wonder why there aren't many turtles in this pond
Do you know why ?
Yeah I do! I think its because they have reached the carrying capacity, and got overshoot and that caused a population crash
wait what does that mean?
Carrying capacity of an environment is the maximum number of individuals of particular species that the environment can normally support, and overshoot is when the population exceeds the carrying capacity
and when the population surpasses the carrying capacity, deaths start to increase rapidly.
When the population starts to get close to the carrying capacity, shortage of resources starts to happen
What about the population crash?
Population crash is when there is a drastic decline in the size of the population over a short period of time.
A population crash happened here
Population crash occurs when the carrying capacity for a population suddenly drops.
No wonder why you got an A+ for biology, your so smart!!
