Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Biotic potential is the maximum number of offspring that a population can produce in ideal conditions, and is not directly involved in feedback mechanisms in natural communities when populations become too dense. Density-dependent factors, limiting factors, physical factors, and biotic factors all play a role in these feedback mechanisms.
