Answer 2

Answer: A S-shaped curve is called a(n) logistic growth curve (Option A)

The phases of logistic growth curve include :

1. lag phase ( where the initial growth starts )

2. Rapid growth phase / exponential growth phase

3. Stable phase (which is the stabilizing factors limit growth)

Logistic growth curve is an “s” shaped curve. Once the carrying capacity ( it is the maximum population size that an environment can support) is reached by an organism then it becomes logistic.
