An "S' curve (on a population chart) reaches its carrying capacity and levels out, while a "J" curve hits its carrying capacity and just continues causing a population explosion and competition for resources.

What is a j-shaped curve called?

A J-shaped curve is often referred to as exponential growth, which illustrates a rapid increase in a population or entity over time. This curve demonstrates a steady rise and acceleration in growth without any limiting factors in place.


Where is the thoracic curve?

The thoracic spine is from the base of the neck to the bottom of the rib cage. All the thoracic vertebrae - all 12 have ribs attached. The curve the thoracic spine has is called the thoracic curve, or kyphosis. It is normal to have a curve but if the curve is excessive or twists to the side it is abnormal. It can cause problems or if mild most people do not know it is there.


A bell curve indicates in a trait?

A bell curve indicates the distribution of a trait or variable in a population, where most individuals fall near the average (peak of the curve) and fewer individuals are at the extreme ends (tails) of the distribution. It shows that the majority of individuals possess the trait in a typical or average level.


Which is the superior concave curve in the vertebral column?

The lordotic curve, which includes the cervical and lumbar curves, is considered superior in the vertebral column. These curves help to maintain balance and absorb shock during movement.


What is cot curve?

Cot curve is concerned with the measurement of the degree of reannealing of DNA strands. It is a curve drawn with X-axis having DNA concentration unit multiplied by time. Since the initial concentration is considered represented as Co and when multiplied with time t, it becomes "Cot" and the graph is known as Cot curve. The graph is drawn against %reanealled versus Cot.

What does an sshaped curve for population growth suggest?

An S-shaped curve for population growth suggests that the population initially grows slowly, accelerates rapidly, and then levels off as it reaches carrying capacity. This pattern is indicative of logistic growth, where resource limitations eventually constrain population growth.

How do you convert from cartesian to intrinsic?

The intrinsic equation of a curve is one that uses properties of the curve which do not depend on the location or orientation of the curve relative to some arbitrary origin and axes. It defines the shape of the curve without specifying its position relative to a coordinate system.The intrinsic quantities used most often are arc length = s , tangential angle = theta , curvature = kappa or radius of curvature, and, for 3-dimensional curves, torsion = tau.There is, therefore, no simple answer to the question.
