- A
Density-independent factors that affect populations regardless of how crowded they become
- B
Stochastic environmental events that strike populations randomly without regard to density
- C
Abiotic stressors that act uniformly on every individual independent of population size
- Dcheck_circle
Density-dependent factors that intensify as population density increases
Explanation
Their effect strengthens as crowding increases — important regulators of population size near K.
