Detailed explanation-1: -Assertion: A sigmoid curve is characteristic of plants growing in the natural environment.
Detailed explanation-2: -A sigmoid curve is characteristic to an organism growing in a natural environment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Properties. In general, a sigmoid function is monotonic, and has a first derivative which is bell shaped. Conversely, the integral of any continuous, non-negative, bell-shaped function (with one local maximum and no local minimum, unless degenerate) will be sigmoidal.
Detailed explanation-4: -D. Logistic growth model is represented by a sigmoid curve.
Detailed explanation-5: -In red blood cells, the oxygen-binding curve for hemoglobin displays an “S” shaped called a sigmoidal curve. A sigmoidal curve shows that oxygen binding is cooperative; that is, when one site binds oxygen, the probability that the remaining unoccupied sites that will bind to oxygen will increase.
