Growth Curve Simulation
With a partner go to the following link, population growth simulation, and perform the experiments for both exponential growth as well as logistic growth.
Record results in you lab book.
Answer analysis questions in your lab book.
Information for your lab book
Title: Growth Curve Simulation
Questions to be answered after each part of the simulation
Analysis
Exponential Growth Questions
a. What is the general shape of the growth curve when the growth rate is greater than 1?
b. How doesincreasing the growth rate affect the shape of the growth curve?
c. What happens when the growth rate is less than 1?
Logistic Growth Questions
a. What does incorporating the carrying capacity into the model do to the shape of the population growth curve?
b. How does changing the value of the carrying capacity affect the shape of the growth curve?
c. Given a constant carrying capacity, how does changing the growth rate affect the shape of the growth curve?
d. Why does the growth curve oscillate with high growth rates?
