Answer:

The difference between a density-dependent and a density-independent limiting factor?Some are density-dependent, while others are density-independent. Density-dependent limiting factors cause a population's per capita growth rate to change—typically, to drop—with increasing population density. ... Density-independent factors affect per capita growth rate independent of population density.
