Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Carrying capacity refers to the maximum number of individuals of a particular species that an environment can support sustainably over time, given the food, habitat, water, and other necessities available in the environment. When certain herbivores selectively consume and destroy some types of plants but not others, leading to those plants no longer growing in the area, it can alter the carrying capacity of the environment for those and possibly other species by reducing the availability of resources.
