What is the difference between linear and exponential population growth?

Linear growth: The population adds the same number every week/month/year.Exponential growth: The population multiplies bythe same number every week/month/year.


Where a Example of a linear population?

An example of a linear population can be seen in a simple model of a species that reproduces at a constant rate in an environment with unlimited resources. For instance, if a rabbit population doubles every year under ideal conditions, the growth can be represented by a linear equation. However, in reality, most populations are better described by exponential growth models due to resource limitations. A true linear population growth is rare in nature but can be approximated in controlled settings.


Formula for population growth?

There are a number of formulas that will work to calculate a population's growth rate. You could use births minus deaths in a year for example.


How are exponential growth patterns similar to and different from linear growth patterns?

They are similar because the population increases over time in both cases, and also because you are using a mathematical model for a real-world process. They are different because exponential growth can get dramatically big and bigger after a fairly short time. Linear growth keeps going up the same amount each time. Exponential growth goes up by more each time, depending on what the amount (population) is at that time. Linear growth can start off bigger than exponential growth, but exponential growth will always win out.

How can you tell if a graph is an example of linear growth?

Linear growth means that the graph is a straight line.


The exponential model of population growth applies?

The exponential model of population growth describes the idea that population growth expands rapidly rather than in a linear fashion, such as human reproduction. Cellular reproduction fits the exponential model of population growth.
