Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
If the population follows a logistic growth curve, the graph of P vs t will look like the diagram below.
The rate of growth (P') increases slowly at first, then increases rapidly from 2 to 4, and then slows down, but always P > 0.
The graph has an inflection point at (3, 1000). That's the point at which the rate of growth starts slowing down.
When t < 3, P'' > 0.
When t = 3, P'' = 0.
When t > 3, P'' < 0, because the rate of population growth is slowing down.
Thus, if the population is in the final phase of logistic growth, the population is increasing at a decreasing rate (TRUE)..
