What causes the population to slow down during logistic growth?

During logistic growth, the population slows down as it approaches the carrying capacity of its environment. This occurs due to limited resources such as food, space, and nutrients, which create competition among individuals. Additionally, increased mortality rates and decreased birth rates often result from overcrowding and resource scarcity, further contributing to the slowdown. As these factors balance out, the population stabilizes around the carrying capacity, leading to a more stable growth rate.

How does growth curve look like?

A growth curve typically starts with a slow, lag phase where growth is minimal as the population adjusts to its environment. This is followed by an exponential phase where growth accelerates rapidly due to abundant resources. Eventually, growth slows down as resources become limited, leading to a stationary phase where the population stabilizes. The curve often resembles an S-shape, known as a sigmoid curve, reflecting these distinct phases of growth.
