Asymptote is a logistic growth curve is obtained whenAsymptote is a logistic growth curve is obtained when

Options

  1. AThe value of 'r' approaches zero
  2. BK = N
  3. CK > N
  4. DK < N

Correct answer

B. K = N

Step-by-step solution

When K = N in a logistics growth curve, it is an asymptote.

It means a population growing in a habitat with limited resources show initially an Iag phase, followed by a phase of acceleration and deceleration and finally an asymptote, i.e. when the population density (N)reaches the carrying capacity (K)
Asymptote is a logistic growth curve is obtained when
Population growth curve rs logistic,

when responses are limiting the growth, here K is carrying capacity and N is population density.
