When marking an animal for the mark/recapture technique, what can a scientist do to ensure the mark does not lower the organism’s chance of survival, and thus throw off the population estimate?

The is an estimate of the fewest number of organisms a population needs to avoid extinction. this measurement will most if the number of offspring each female in the population produces increases. if the population's this measurement will most likely increase. 1 population density, minimum viable population, carrying capacity 2 decrease, be unaffected, increase 3 death rate increase, dead rate decrease
