Well the carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals of a particular species that a particular environment can take, then it works to stabilize that population. So adding a limiting factor would stabilize the populations size more.
Both the limiting factor and carrying capacity play a role in determining the maximum population size an environment can support. Limiting factors are characteristics of the environment that restrict population growth, while carrying capacity is the maximum population size an environment can sustain over the long term. Both are important concepts in population ecology.
Carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals that an environment can sustainably support. If a population exceeds the carrying capacity of its environment, resources like food, water, and shelter become limited, leading to competition, scarcity, and population decline through factors like starvation, disease, or migration.
The factors are: Food, Environment, Water, and Space. If any one of them will be gone, say if food is gone, the carrying capacity is not going to be affected since the population will go down. But if all of the factors are available, the carrying capacity will increase since there are all resources available for every species And the carrying capacity would decrease a little because the factors would be limitedAmount of land available, food and water accessibility, etc.Both limiting factors and carrying capacity have to do with population. Limiting factors limit the population from increasing. carrying capacity is the maximum amount of organisms that can live in an area.1.Sources of food supply2.Prey and predator3.Human activity4.Etc.
A limiting factor for fish in a pond is the availability of oxygen. When the oxygen levels are low, fish struggle to survive, leading to decreased growth, reproduction, and overall health. This limitation directly affects the carrying capacity of the pond, as fewer fish can thrive in an environment with insufficient oxygen, ultimately reducing the population size and biodiversity within the ecosystem.
The carrying capacity effects the interactions with environment just like the limiting factors effect interactions with environment.
they cause individuals to dieoff or leave

We always called that a "limiting factor".

the difference between limiting factor and carrying capacity is the fact that carrying capacity is the population a ecosystem can support over TIME and limiting factor just makes the population stop growing and wont let any more people/animals/ect.. in if the place is packed

If a population exceeds the carrying capacity of its environment, resources like food, water, and shelter become limited, leading to competition, scarcity, and population decline through factors like starvation, disease, or migration.
Limiting factors are very closely tied to carrying capacity. Many kinds of animals can increase in numbers very quickly, and may temporarily exceed the carrying capacity of their habitat. This results in stress, starvation, disease, and parasites.
carrying capacity is the largest number of individuals of one species that an environment can support. Biotic potential is the potential growth of a population if it could grow in perfect conditions with no limiting factors.
The factors are: Food, Environment, Water, and Space. If any one of them will be gone, say if food is gone, the carrying capacity is not going to be affected since the population will go down.

Climate,lack of shelter, sicknesses and parasites, food or water as well as the carrying capacity are examples of limiting factors.
