What is carrying capacity:
Carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals an environment can support sustainably without degrading resources. It applies to populations of humans, animals, or plants.
Factors Affecting Carrying Capacity:
Food Supply – Enough resources must be available to sustain the population.
Water Availability – Essential for survival and economic activities.
Living Space – Overcrowding can lead to resource depletion.
Environmental Conditions – Climate, pollution, and disasters affect sustainability.
Technology & Infrastructure – Advances can increase carrying capacity by improving resource use.
