Answer:

The correct answer is option D, that is, the population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size remains stable.

Explanation:

The maximum capacity of the monarch butterfly, which can thrive in the meadow is 5000, which signifies that the population of twenty butterflies will continue to grow unless and until it attains the population of 5000.  

In case if the growth of the population takes place exponentially, then there would be an end and the limit of 5000 would not have any significance. However, if the growth of the population takes place logistically, then the end of the growth would be the same as the limit that signifies that the 5000 limits would exhibit significance.  

Thus, the only probable answer would be option D, that is, the population will attain 5000 mark and post that the growth will become stable, which precisely takes place in a logistic growth.

The improper watering to the tomato plants can lead to several cultivation issues. Watering tomatoes at after drying them out can also lead to tomatoes to swell suddenly and splitting the peel of the tomatoes which permits fungal germination to take hold causing the complete ruin of the fruit. Therefore, it may noticed that watering plays an important role in the cultivation of tomatoes. It is clear, therefore, that the reason behind the juiciest tomatoes is the watering; the Botanist watered tomatoes plants of his garden more than they were watered in other gardens.
