Detailed explanation-1: -Biotic potential is the ability of a population of living species to increase under ideal environmental conditions – sufficient food supply, no predators, and a lack of disease. An organism’s rate of reproduction and the size of each litter are the primary determining factors for biotic potential.
Detailed explanation-2: -Biotic potential increases a population of organisms whereas environmental resistance decreases it. It therefore becomes evolutionarily beneficial for organisms with high environmental resistance to also have high biotic potential.
Detailed explanation-3: -The maximum per capita growth rate for a population is called the intrinsic rate of increase.
Detailed explanation-4: -The question we’re here is which of the following factors does not deter mined species, biotic potential? The age of death of the individuals.
