Describe the S-shaped curve in logistic population growth.

• The S-shaped curve in logistic population growth describes the decline of a population over time, starting with high growth, decelerating, and eventually reaching zero.

• The S-shaped curve in logistic population growth describes the growth of a population over time, starting with slow growth, accelerating, and eventually leveling off at the carrying capacity.

• The S-shaped curve in logistic population growth describes the exponential growth of a population over time, with no leveling off.

• The S-shaped curve in logistic population growth describes the random fluctuations in population size over time, with no clear pattern.

which statement sounds accurate based on the graph data. 

• The zebra and lions do not affect each other

• when lions population increases, so does the zebra population

• When the zebra population increases, it causes the lion population to also increase

• when zebra populations go down, the zebra population goes up.

What does the logistic growth graph represent in population dynamics?

• A model of population growth that increases indefinitely without constraints.

• A model of population growth that starts slow, accelerates, and then levels off at carrying capacity.

• A model of population growth that decreases over time due to resource depletion.

• A model of population growth that fluctuates randomly without a pattern.
