The logistic population growth model, dN/dt = rN (K - N/K), describes a populations growth when an upper limit to growth is assumed. This upper limit to growth is known as the population’s , and as N gets larger, dN/dt .

Biotic potential, decreases

Carrying capacity, increases

Carrying capacity, decreases

Correct answer is (d) Carrying capacity, decreases

Q. The logistic population growth model, $d N / d t = r N (K - N / K)$ , describes a populations growth when an upper limit to growth is assumed. This upper limit to growth is known as the population’s _ , and as $N$ gets larger, $d N / d t$ .
