The carrying capacity is defined as the maximum amount of a given species that can survive indefinitely in a given environment (shown on the graph as K). For example, for Tiger Lilies, though they still have a strong population density at the moment, because they are at the bottom of the food web, in a certain environment as time their population could get so depleted because they are a main food source that they could eventually hit their carrying capacity, where the population no longer has the resources or density it needs. There are many different factors that can have an impact on the carrying capacity of a species, most having to do with its environment and ecosystem. For the Tiger Lily, natural disaster like earthquakes can be harmful to them and have an impact on their carrying capacity.

The Survivorship curve shows an organisms expected survival rate aka. life expectancy. Type 1 survivorship is a convex curve, which shows that most individuals in that species will live through adulthood with most mortality occurring in old age. An example of this is humans. Type 2 survivorship shows a straight line, which means that an individuals chance of dying is independent of its age. An example of this would be small birds and mammals. Type 3 survivorship shows that few individuals live through adulthood and chance of survival increases with age. The Tiger Lily has type 3 survivorship (shown on the graph), because though Tiger Lily seeds are blown by the wind and most aren't nurtured through grow so the majority don't survive.

Interspecific Interaction:
Competition: Lillies compete for land that best suits its growing requirements
Dispersion Pattern: Random
The seeds of Tiger Lillies can be blown around a certain area by the wind or carried by animals in a certain area. This type of dispersion is considered random as there is no pattern of where the seeds are placed in nature. However, their growth might appear clumped as the flower will grow better in certain areas, like moist ground, better than others.
Density Factors that affect Tiger Lillies:
Weather(Independent): Lillies rely on moist areas and a drought in a place they were growing would severly stunt the population
Human Predation (Independent): If humans harvest these flowers and their roots it would diminish the populations of lilies in that area and hinder them from growing back
Space(Dependent): If their is not enough wetland the lillies cannot grow.
Food Availability(Dependent): The lily needs nutrients and water from the ground to perform photosynthesis
Natural Disaster: The effects of natural disaster, most specifically earthquakes, can be harmful to the life of the lily. An earthquake can disrupt the roots that have grown into the ground. It is likely the earthquake rips the roots of of place and dismantles the Tiger Lily. This would effectively kill the Tiger Lily and make it difficult for it to regrow

-There are many different levels of the food chain: Primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, and quaternary consumers.
-Plants are primary producers, meaning they make their own food  (for example by preforming photosynthesis and creating glucose a key nutrient)
-The energy that is created by plants is then passed on to their consumers
-For the Tiger Lily, their primary consumers would be chipmunks, squirrels, voles, beetles, and humans, and in turn humans could also be secondary consumers because they could potentially eat the chipmunks or squirrels.
In US:
-Lilies gain their nutrients from the Sun
-Squirrels, Chipmunks, and Voles love Lily Bulbs
-Humans often eat them
-Lily leaf beetles chew on the leaves of the lilies
-Can defoliate a tiger lily overnight

# data[].attributes.body
-Native to Asia: Most specifically China, Japan, and Korea
-Prefer full sun locations but grow best being in the shade in the afternoon
-Grow in moist open fields and meadows prefer temperate forest
-In US and Canada can be found in Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia
-Found in zones 4-9 on the USDA Plant Hardines Zone Map (see below)
-Use tubereous roots- stores nutrients for the organism to allow them to live all year round
