For a population growth curve to continue to increase exponentially, which of these must occur?
|
|
the organisms must adapt to a new habitat
|
|
|
the organisms must migrate to a new environment
|
|
|
the resources in the environment must be unlimited
|
|
|
the environment must provide a habitat for a large variety of organisms
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Populations with unlimited resources grow exponentially, with an accelerating growth rate. When resources become limiting, populations follow a logistic growth curve. The population of a species will level off at the carrying capacity of its environment.
Detailed explanation-2: -Exponential growth As a result, the population growth rate increases with each new generation. Under this model, a population rapidly grows quite large, and continues to grow indefinitely: A line graph titled Exponential Growth showing population size over time.
