Detailed Lesson Plan in Relationship Between Population Growth and Carrying Capacity
I. OBJECTIVES
After going through this module, you are expected to:
1. identify the difference between density-dependent and density-independent
limiting factors;
2. differentiate logistic growth from exponential growth; and
3. explain the relationship between population growth from carrying capacity.

B. PRESENTATION
Class today we will tackle the Relationship Yes Ma’am
between Growth and Carrying Capacity
This is where Carrying Capacity comes into Carrying capacity can be defined
play, so what is Carrying Capacity please read as a species' average population
the definition. size in a particular habitat. The
species population size is limited
by environmental factors like
adequate food, shelter, water, and
mates. If these needs are not met,
the population will decrease until
the resource rebounds.
For you to better understand what is carrying
capacity, please watch the video and take
down some notes
Base on the video you have watched, what did (Student’s answer may vary)
you learn from it?
Very good, does anyone has something to (Student’s answer may vary)
add?
2. Logistic Growth
Please read the definition
Logistic growth is population
increase that happens in a manner
that starts slowly, as there are few
individuals, then increases in
speed as numbers increase, but
then decreases to a halt as
numbers get high enough that
resources are depleted and cannot
As competition increases and resources support further growth.
become increasingly scarce, population
reaches carrying capacity of their
environment, causing their growth rate to
slow nearly to zero.
The third limiting factor that depend on Predators kill and eat their prey, of
population density is Predation. course, so predation increases prey
death rate and can cause negative
growth rates – population decline.
And the las factor is Emigration, will you It occurs when a population

and individual organisms leave
and go to a new area where they
can find enough resources for
survival and reproduction.
Thank you, so this will obviously cause a
decrease in the number of organisms in a
population.
None Ma’am
Thank you, do you have any question?
C. GENERALIZATION
Okay it seems like you fully understand the
topic the we tackled today. To sum up the (Student’s answer may vary)
topic, who can summarize the lesson for
today?
Very good!
(Student’s answer may vary)
What are the two limiting factors and its
definition?
Very well said! And that’s the end of our
discussion for today thank you for actively Goodbye Ma’am!
participating. Goodbye class!
IV. EVALUATION
Directions: Read the following statements carefully. Write T if the statement is
correct, and F if otherwise. Write your answers in your notebook/on a separate sheet
of paper.
1. A population’s growth is limited by density-independent factor and density
dependent factor.
2. Natural disasters, temperature, sunlight and human activities in the environment
are examples of density-independent factors.
3. When the population reaches the carrying capacity of its environment, population
growth will stop.
4. The graph below shows an exponential growth of human population.
5. When an organism has reached the carrying capacity of its environment, its
population will still increase.
V. ASSIGNMENT
Directions: Identify the limiting factor in each illustrated situation. Choose your
answer from the pool of limiting factors inside the box, and categorize it as density-
dependent or density-independent. Write your answers in your notebook/on a separate
sheet of paper.
