Vedclass · Answer

(C) The population density of an area is determined by four basic processes: natality $(B)$,mortality $(D)$,immigration $(I)$,and emigration $(E)$.Population density $(N)$ at time $t+1$ is given by $N_{t+1} = N_t + [(B + I) - (D + E)]$.Natality and immigration increase population density,while mortality and emigration decrease it.Adverse conditions (such as lack of food or extreme weather) significantly affect population density by increasing mortality and decreasing natality,and by influencing migration patterns. Therefore,the statement that adverse conditions do not affect population density is incorrect.
