The available food can support the number of organisms. However, if there is exponential increase in population size due to increased reproduction, the carrying capacity of the habitat is exceeded. This implies that the available space and food will no longer be enough for the organisms. Social stress comes in form of cannibalism, predation, starvation. The population growth slows down.
