4 multiple choice 1 point when a population grows over its carrying capacity, which of these things will not happen? the carrying capacity will increase the population will crash competition will increase resources will be limited
Carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals an environment can support. When a population exceeds it, resources get limited (as more individuals consume them), competition (for those limited resources) increases, and the population may crash (due to lack of resources). But the carrying capacity itself doesn't increase just because the population overshoots it. It is determined by factors like available food, space, etc., not by the population size exceeding it.
