According to the logistic model of population growth, the absolute number of individuals by which a population grows during a given time period: a. gets steadily larger as the population size increases. b. gets steadily smaller as the population size increases. c. remains constant as the population size increases. d. is highest when the population is at an intermediate size. e. fluctuates on a regular cycle.
