Which is a characteristic of exponential population growth?

Biology
1 answer:
Rudik [331]3 years ago
4 0

A characteristic of exponential population growth is that <u>resources are consumed exponentially during all phases </u>

Explanation:

Exponential growth is a type of growth where the population doubles its population size with each generation. Bacteria are the best examples of organisms that can exhibit this type of growth. However, just as the growth of the population is exponential, so is the consumption of resources. With each generation as the population doubles, the strain on the resources increases. This continues until the resources become depleted and cannot sustain the population numbers. Because resources are always infinite, this is why it is rare to find any population, including bacteria, sustaining exponential growth for long periods. Most common population growth is logistic (S-shaped).

What are two ways in which exocytosis might help a cell maintain homeostasis?
Olegator [25]
Endocytosis enables extensive particles to enter the cell, and exocytosis ousts vast atoms from the cell. Along these lines, the cell can acquire things it needs and disposes of things it doesn't. Exocytosis is the turn around process, where a cell ousts substantial particles, generally squander from cell forms.

Identify the rectangular solid that represents the cell with the smallest amount of plasma membrane per volume of cytoplasm
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Solid 1 has the smallest amount of plasma membrane per volume of cytoplasm

<em>Note: The question is incomplete. The attachment below gives the complete question</em>

Explanation:

The outermost surface of a cell is bounded by the plasma membrane which functions to maintain the integrity of the cell as well as control the movement of particles in and out of the cell.

The ratio of the surface area of a cell to the volume of the cell indicates how big the cell is. When the surface area to volume ratio is small, the cell is very big, but if the surface area to volume ratio is big, the cell is small.

From the attachment below, the surface area (plasma membrane) per volume of plasma of the rectangular solids are as follows:

Solid 1: 10/2 = 5 cm⁻¹

Solid 2: 12.18/2 = 6.09 cm⁻¹

Solid 3: 19.0/2 = 9.5 cm⁻¹

Solid 4: 34.24/2 = 17.12 cm⁻¹

Solid 5: 65.79/2 = 32.895 cm⁻¹

Solid 1 has the smallest amount of plasma membrane per volume of cytoplasm
