What is the effect of exponential growth on population?
In exponential growth, the number of individuals in a population grows rapidly. With more individuals comes an increased demand for resources, food, competition, etc. There is never an unlimited amount of such resources, so a population growing exponentially is eventually limited by the amount the population can take from its environment. This limitation -- the point that a population exceeds its means -- is called the carrying capacity. Sometimes an exponentially-growing population will grow past its carrying capacity for a time before dipping back down and leveling off. In some cases (like with humans), the carrying capacity can be pushed further and further with adaption (or with humans-- innovation).
Why does a population that experiences exponential growth have a high chance of having a population crash?
A population that experiences exponential growth can rapidly outstrip its resources, leading to overpopulation and competition for limited resources. This can result in a population crash when resources are depleted, leading to a sharp decline in population size. Additionally, high population densities can also facilitate the spread of diseases and increase vulnerability to environmental fluctuations, further contributing to a potential population crash.
What is a sentence for the word 'abiotic factor'?
Bio means life and so a biotic factor means a living factor.So you can use it like this- Cats, Dogs and Humans are biotic factors.
What is the purpose of the growth hormone?
Growth hormone (GH) is a protein-based peptide hormone. It stimulates growth, cell reproduction and regeneration in humans and other animals
What are ways that human activity has contributed to reduction of the ozone layer?
Humans have eroded the ozone. It is because of man made CFC's.
How did Thomas Malthus define 'exponential growth'?
Exponential growth states that if the population of humans kept on growing at the same rate unchecked, there would be insufficient living space sooner or later.
What causes expotential growth?
Exponential growth is when the growth rate is a function of the amount. Another way of saying it is, the more there is, the higher the growth rate. This occurs in just about all populations including humans. This growth will continue at an exponential rate until some other limiting factor reduces the growth rate such as famine or disease. For more information look up the "Law of natural growth and decay."
What is pantetheine?
A growth factor substance essential in humans, and a constituent of coenzyme A.
How does population achieve exponential growth?
the zooplankton grows money on tiny under water trees and then sells it to the humans and then they die the end thank you
What do humans have in common with the smallest microorganisms?
We both have DNA. That and we both take advantage of exponential growth to the point that we experience some serious food shortages.
What is the growth factor abundent in coconut milk?
Coconut milk contains a growth factor known as cytokinins, which are plant hormones that have been associated with promoting cell division and overall plant growth. They have also been studied for potential health benefits in humans, such as anti-aging properties and antioxidant effects.
How does the population growth curve of humans compare with that of bacteria on a petri dish?
The current population of humans is growing at a rapid rate and not indicating it is slowing down to a carrying capacity. Bacteria exhibit this type of growth when growing in a petri dish in a lab.
When does the exponential growth of a population?
When the food source is depleted, a new predator is introduced, or balance is attained. The earth tends to find balance for the most part. As far as an "intelligent" species such as humans goes, probably never. or When the organisms compete

What type of limiting factor is fishing?
Living limited factor because humans fish and humans are living.

Is it human population growth only responsible for factor for deforestation?
No, although humans do contribute a lot to this, deforestation is also cause by forest fires, minorly by hurricanes, tornados, etc.
