Which is not a difference between a population showing exponential growth and a population showing logistic growth?
Mutation Rate
Are Logistic growth models more realistic than exponential growth models?
yes because once there is too many of one species the will battle for food which will becoome scarce. pluss not every year has the same climet, like summer might be cooler one year and hotter the next
How do you define logistic growth?
Logistic growth is a sigmoidal (saturating) curve which describes e.g. the spread of information. It is based on a differential equation, which is usually solved by y=1/(1+e^-x).
Which graph shows the most likely growth of a squirrel population living in a forest?
Which graph shows the most likely growth of a squirrel population living in a forest?
How is population growth measured?
It is calculated by using the Death rate and Birth rate to give an estimated population growth statistic. If there are more deaths than births there is a decline, and if there are more births than deaths then there is a population increase.
What are two classifications of population?
Logistic growth and Exponential growth
What are the two classifications of population?
Logistic growth and Exponential growth
Describe the factors that contribute to exponential and logistic population growth?
factors that contribute to exponential growth is unlimited resources while factors that contribute to logistic population growth is limited resources.
How does the availability of resources affect whether a population's growth is exponential or logistic?
If resources are limitless than a population's growth will be exponential. Growth will be logistic in cases where there are limited resources. As the population grows closer to the logistical limit, the overall growth will slow.
What are the two types of measurable population density?
The two typesof population growth are, Logistic Growth and Exponential Growth
What occurs when a population growth slows or stops following a period of exponential growth?
Logistic growth
Which is not a difference between a population showing exponential growth and a population showing logistic growth?
Mutation Rate
What are exponential growth and logistic growth?
Exponential Growth: occurs when the individuals in a population reproduce at a constant rate.Logistic Growth: occurs when a population's growth slows or stops following a period of exponential growth around a carrying capacity.
When the exponential phase of a logistic growth curve of a population ceases what happen to population growth?
population growth begins to slow down
Describe the conditions under which logistic growth occurs?
logistic growth is when a population experiences exponential growth but at a certain point is limited because the population exceeds its carrying capacity.
What are types of population growth?
The two types of population growth are, Logistic Growth and Exponential Growth.If you don't know what they mean then you can jfgi.
Compare exponential growth with logistic growth?
Exponential growth occurs when numbers increase by a certain factor in each successive time period. Logistic growth is population growth that starts with a minimum number of individuals and reaches a maximum depending on the carrying capacity of the habitat. In exponential growth population grows slowly when it's small, but as the population gets larger, growth speeds up. In logistic growth, when the population is small, the growth rate is fast because there are plenty of natural resources. (Logistic) As the population approaches the carrying capacity, resources become scarce. Completion for food, shelter and mates increases between individuals of a population. As a result, the growth rate slows. Exponential growth, grows fast in the beginning and then slows down. Logistic growth grows slow in the beginning and then speeds up.
