Carrying Capacity
 * **__What is Carrying Capacity?__**
 * (1)Carrying Capacity is the amount of one organisms a habtiat can hold if the population gets to high or reachs its carrying capacity resourses will become limited and the population of the habtiat will slowly decrease. A population of deer can have a drmatically increase by their being good weather for plant growth. The only way for the population to stay staedy, there will have to be enogh preadators, prey and decomposers. There also needs to be shelter, food and water to be able to live in a hatiat. Population can change over time so the habtiat never stays the same for brith rate and** **death rate**.


 * __**How Carying Capacity affects the world?**__

(6)
 * Even the world has a carrying capacity like us humans but on earth we have never reached our carrying capacity. Our population is always incearseing and the more we incearse we are more likely going to reach our carrying capacity. Most scientist thought that humans would take over food production. Some people suggest that adults sould have no children.Most public buildings have a limted on how many people can enter at one time because it could become crowded and the people would not have enogh space.(10)** [[image:http://www.strathmaycattlestation.com.au/pic/cattleinyards2.jpg width="282" height="298"]] [[image:eco_carrycapacity.jpg width="272" height="250"]] (5)[[image:deer_lead.jpg width="282" height="287"]](8) ======
 * __**Image Explaintion**__
 * The first image shows a farm with cows on it, this shows the carrying capacity of the farm and there are to many cows for the farm to hol,the secound image shows the cycle of carrying capacity,and the third picture shows the carrying capacity of deer.**

__**Did the deer ever reach a Carrying Capacity in your lab? Why?**__ **There was a study conducted that told some stats are controlling their deer population, they also found that some people suggest that the deer populations increasing could impact the ecosystem in a negative way because the eat the plants that other animals depend on to live(7), and beause there are not any perdators to hunt them, the deer will over populate then resources become limited and the deer population slowly decreaes.(3)**
 * __**Carrying Capacity in Gray Area**__
 * The Carrying Capacity in Grey Area shows that maybe the dieing of fish is cased by the carrying capacity going up in the city which means there are to many people. Then the people poulute and the poplution goes into the water and kills the fish.(11)**
