Question

Identify the growth curves ‘A’ and ‘B’.

Hint:

The exponential growth curve represents unchecked growth, whereas the logistic growth curve accounts for environmental resistance and carrying capacity.

Answer 1

Curve A: Exponential growth curve (\( \frac{dN}{dt} = rN \)). Curve B: Logistic growth curve (\( \frac{dN}{dt} = rN \left( \frac{K-N}{K} \right) \)).
