The major factors are natality (birth rate) and mortality (death rate) — with migration (immigration and emigration) also important.
Population growth rate ≈ (births + immigrants) − (deaths + emigrants). Environmental and biological factors (food/water availability, disease, predation, habitat, climate, and human activities) influence those rates and set the carrying capacity that limits long‑term growth.
