Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
(1) A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I
(2) A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
(3) A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
(4) A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
Show Answer
Answer: (2) A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
Explaination-
-
Logistic growth (occurs when a population’s growth is limited by available resources. As resources become limited, the population growth rate slows down) -Limited resource availability condition
-
Exponential growth (occurs when a population has access to abundant resources, leading to rapid and continuous growth without resource limitations) -Unlimited resource availability condition
-
Expanding age pyramid (An expanding age pyramid has a broad base, indicating a large proportion of young individuals (pre-reproductive age) and a smaller proportion of older individuals,reproductive and post-reproductive age) - The percent pyramid individuals of pre-reproductive age is largest followed by reproductive and post-reproductive age groups
-
Stable age pyramid (A stable age pyramid has roughly equal proportions of individuals in each age group, indicating a balanced population structure with relatively stable birth and death rates across age groups) - The percent individuals of pre-reproductives and reproductive age group are the same
