(а) The cоnsequences оf а grоwing humаn population have been a concern since the times of Thomas Malthus when he proposed that humans could exceed their carrying capacity on Earth. (i) Describe the concept of carrying capacity for a species. (ii) Describe how a change in the availability of a specific resource can affect the carrying capacity of a species. (b) As the human population grows, forests are often clear-cut. (i) Describe one negative effect of clear-cutting forested areas. (ii) Besides creating or expanding forest preserves, describe one mitigation strategy that humans can employ to reduce the negative impact of human population growth on forests. (iii) Describe an additional benefit of the mitigation strategy in described in (b)(ii). (c) As a country industrializes, it often moves through a demographic transition. The model below illustrates the changes through the four stages of the demographic transition. (i) Based on the model, identify the stage in the demographic transition with the greatest change in crude birth rate. (ii) Based on the model, describe the relationship between the crude death rate and the crude birth rate that led to the trend in total population in stage 2. (iii) Explain one likely social or economic cause for the change in the crude birth rate illustrated in stage 3. (d) During a demographic transition, intensive agricultural practices used to feed a growing population can result in soil eroding from crop fields and running off into surface waters. (i) Make a claim that proposes an effective, long-term solution to minimize the erosion of topsoil into surface waters. (ii) Justify the claim made in (d)(i) by explaining and additional benefit to the proposed solution, other than preventing the erosion of topsoil.
