Biologists notice that a population of ferrets introduced into a reserve begins to show exponential growth. The figures represen
t the population of the ferrets for the first four years after their introduction. Which set of figures represents the exponential growth of the ferrets? 50, 88, 145, 227
50, 92, 90, 95
50, 32, 17, 9
50, 95, 59, 97
The correct option is A. An exponential growth is a type of growth whose rate becomes more rapid in relation to the total number that is available. When a specie has newly been introduced into a new area, they usually give birth rapidly and take over their new environment. If you check the options given above, you will see that it is only option A that have numbers that continuously increase. An exponential growth increase continuously. <span />
Volcanic activity occurs at two types of plate boundaries: mid ocean ridges and subduction zones. Non boundary: not sure but I think it's divergent zones
