Read the following statements and choose the correct option: 1. No population of any species in nature has its disposal unlimited resources to permit exponential growth 2. A population growth in a habitat with unlimited resources show initially a lag phase, followed by phases of acceleration and deceleration and finally an asymptote, when the population density reaches the carrying capacity. 3. Under normal condition
Options
- ABoth 1 and 3 are correct
- BOnly 4 is incorrect
- CAll are incorrect
- DOnly 2 is incorrect
Correct answer
D. Only 2 is incorrect
Step-by-step solution
Natality refers to the number of births during a given period in the population that are added to the initial density.No population of any species in nature has its disposal unlimited resources to permit exponential growth .A population growth in a habitat with limited resources show initially a lag phase, followed by phases of acceleration and deceleration and finally an asymptote, when the population density reaches the carrying capacity. Under normal conditions, births and deaths are the most important factors i
