These models can be used to describe the trajectory of population growth when resources are abundant, its maximum size when resources are limited, or how rapidly in space it expands into new territory.

The biosphere extends into the atmosphere (several kilometers above Earth) and into the depths of the oceans. Despite its apparent vastness to an individual human, the biosphere occupies only a minute space when compared to the known universe. Many abiotic forces influence where life can exist and the types of organisms found in the biosphere.

Innate behavior, or instinct, is important because there is no risk of an incorrect behavior being learned. They are “hard wired” into the system. On the other hand, learned behaviors, although riskier, are flexible, dynamic, and can be altered.

It highlights the conditions that foster city development, including environment, technology, and social organization. Migration and population growth are key factors in urbanization. The evolution of suburbs and urban sprawl leads to increased commuting and resource demands.
