Question

Answer the following questions about logistic growth vs. exponential growth: (A) If a population of seabirds arrives at a newly formed volcanic island, would you expect the population to exhibit exponential growth or logistic growth? Why? (B) Bacteria reproduce by binary fission. They grow larger, copy their DNA, and then split in half. If a single colony of bacteria is placed on a petri dish with enough resources to support 1,000 bacterial colonies, then what would you expect the growth curve to look like over time?
