Any time the RATE of increase is greater than one.
For example : if a population were to double (note that 2 is greater than 1)
each generation then it is referred to as exponential growth.
Note also that there are now 7 billion people on Earth - exponential growth.
What is "needed" for this kind of growth is an unlimited environment,
since it does not exist in the real universe, exponential growth ALWAYS crashes.
Exponential growth is when a population grows faster and faster and there is a population in explosion. This is unsustainable. The population will deplete and many will die. In Logistical growth the number of organisms are pretty much remained at a constant number of individuals.
exponential
In order to have exponential growth there must be sufficient resources to thrive. The problem with exponential growth is that since the world is finite at some point there will be overpopulation.
the industrial revolution began
It is not possible for any species to undergo exponential growth forever. There is only a finite amount of resources in terms of living space, food, air to breathe, water to drink, and so forth, and therefore a constantly growing species will eventually get to the point at which it runs out of resources. Typically this results in mass starvation and shrinkage of the overgrown species.
Logarithmic growth is the inverse of exponential growth. Exponential growth is a growth that occurs at a rate that is consistent and fast.
factors that contribute to exponential growth is unlimited resources while factors that contribute to logistic population growth is limited resources.
It is impossible for exponential growth to continue forever for a few reasons. The population will run out of food, water, and space to live.
The population loses genetic diversity
Yes.
The best description for the exponential growth of species is if the resources available are unlimited, each species can grow to its full potential. This leads the species to grow in numbers.
The growth rate in an exponential growth will continue to increase over time. In logistic growth, the growth rate will increase until it begins to level off at at the carrying capacity of an environment, where the amount of resources determines the amount of organisms that can be sustained in a given environment.
implementation of exponential groth
Exponential growth does not have an origin: it occurs in various situations in nature. For example if the rate of growth in something depends on how big it is, then you have exponential growth.
The kind of growth that describes plants growth throughout life would be exponential growth. This is because it grows at a certain rate.
The main point concerning exponential growth is the constant birth rate. This will be good or bad depending on the resources available as the birth rate maintains a steady growth of the population.
