  4. A: The maximum number of organisms that can be sustained in a habitat over a specified amount of time • Q: What is the carrying capacity?

  5. A: A measure of growth which is predictable and regular • Q: What is geometric growth?

  6. A: The living components of an ecosystem • Q: What are biotic factors?

  7. A: A species native to a certain area • Q: What is an indigenous species?
