                 Passive transport involves diffusion,osmosis and facilitated diffusion.No additional energy is required to carry out passive transport because in passive transport the molecules move from region of high concentration to the low concentration region until equilibrium is reached.

Mrac [35]

<u>Answer</u>: The population would continue to grow until it hit the new carrying capacity.

A new plot of land means new grazing ground for the kudu. Thus, the rate at which the population will grow will be constant untill the new carrying capacity is be reached.

There is no reason for the population to grow faster untill 200 individuals are reached and then to grow slower.
