Q1 FREE PREVIEW

The logistic population growth is expressed by the equation

a

\(\rm dt/dN=Nr \big(\frac{K-N}{K}\big)\)

b

\(\rm dN/dt=rN \big(\frac{K-N}{K}\big)\)

c

\(\rm dN/dt=rN \)

d

\(\rm dN/dt=rN \big(\frac{K-K}{K}\big)\)

✓ Correct answer: b)

\(\rm dN/dt=rN \big(\frac{K-N}{K}\big)\)

Explanation

Logistic population growth is expressed by following equation:
\(\rm \frac{dN}{dt}=rN \big(\frac{K-N}{K}\big)\)
Where, N = population density at time t
r = intrinsic rate of natural increase
K = carrying capacity
