Why does a population not level off during the same year it reaches zero population growth?
A population doesn't level off during the same year it reaches zero population growth because of immigration. Organisms move so populations can't level off.
What resources in a population become less available in population growth?
Well, AS resources in a populating become less available in population growth declines rapidly.
When would expect to see a species go through a logistic growth pattern?
A logistic growth pattern occurs when the population reaches its carrying capacity, at which point the population growth is zero.
What are the phases of logistic growth curve?
There are three phases in a logistic growth curve:1 - Lag phase: the initial stage on which population growth rates are slow as a result of a small population size (occurs when the population is small and is increasing slowly)2- Log phase: The stage in which population growth rates are very rapid (occurs when the population undergoes very rapid growth)3- Stationary phase: The phase in which population growth rates decrease as the population size reaches the carrying capacity and stabilizes (occurs at or close to the carrying capacity of the environment)HOPE THIS HELPS :D
What accounts for most of the population growth of Europe?
Europe has become the new home for many millions of immigrants, legal and illegal, from other parts of the world. A substantial part of the population growth is from these immigrants and their offspring.
What is logistic growth?
Population growth in which the growth rate decreases with increasing number of individuals until it becomes zero when the population reaches a maximum.
Compare exponential growth with logistic growth?
Exponential growth occurs when numbers increase by a certain factor in each successive time period. Logistic growth is population growth that starts with a minimum number of individuals and reaches a maximum depending on the carrying capacity of the habitat. In exponential growth population grows slowly when it's small, but as the population gets larger, growth speeds up. In logistic growth, when the population is small, the growth rate is fast because there are plenty of natural resources. (Logistic) As the population approaches the carrying capacity, resources become scarce. Completion for food, shelter and mates increases between individuals of a population. As a result, the growth rate slows. Exponential growth, grows fast in the beginning and then slows down. Logistic growth grows slow in the beginning and then speeds up.

A growth pattern in which population size stabilizes at a maximum limit?
Logistic
When resources become less available how does population growth change?
increased emigration
Why does a populations not level off during the same year it reaches zero population growth?
cute
Instead of growing explosively population growth tends to level off because the population reaches the of a particular environment?
carrying capacity
What conditions will cause a population to have logistic growth?
When the population's resources become less available.
What is absolute growth rate?
Absolute growth rate(agr) curve enables us to express the growth of organisms in terms f growth rate. In most organism, agr increases steadily until reaches a maximum and then, gradually falls. Agr is a bell-shaped curve.
