Question

The relationship between population growth and resources can be described as

Answer 1

A

The relationship between population growth and resources is inverse; as one goes up the other goes down.

Explanation:

An inverse relationship is one where when one variable is affected positively, the other is negatively impacted, and vice versa. In other terms, when one variable increases the other decreases.

When population growth increases, the strain on the resources increases, due to increased competition, and hence the resources decrease. This is why ideally apopulation cannot grow indefinitely because resources are always limited. The population growth will start to levels off as it reaches carrying capacity. When the resources become depleted the population growth plummets.
