Question
choose the correct answer. in order to grow and thrive, what range do populations aim for the within the upper and lower limits of limiting factors? no survivors range intolerance range optimal range most extreme range
In ecology, the optimal range refers to the environmental conditions (within the limits of limiting factors) where a population can grow, reproduce, and thrive best. The no - survivors range is where no individuals can live. The intolerance range is when conditions are outside what the population can tolerate (but not necessarily all die immediately). The most extreme range is too vague. Since the question is about growing and thriving, the optimal range is the correct concept.
