Classify each statement according to whether it applies to the
exponential or geometric growth model:
assumes growth at specific intervals over a period of time
Ans: Geometric growth model
When the intrinsic growth rate (r) of a population equals zero, the
population size after one year (N1) is _______ the initial population size
(N0).
Therefore, the annual growth rate (λ) of the population equals
_______.
Ans: When the intrinsic growth rate (r) of a population equals
zero, the population size after one year (N1) is EQUAL TO the
initial population size (N0).
Therefore, the annual growth rate (λ) of the population equals
1.
