  1. Density dependent factors are biotic factors (biological) and involve things like competition,feeding, mating etc.

    All the ones on your list are biotic and therefore density dependent.

    Cohort -a group of individuals.

    Dispersion - to do with area/sapace and numbers.

    Allele effect - genetics - depends on mating etc.

    Iteroparous -  breeding mechanism - multiple times.

    Semelparous - breeding mechanism = once per lifetime.


  2. The Allee effect is, by definition, density-dependent.  It describes how when population density decreases, reproductive output decreases at a disproportionally higher rate.
