Question

Answer the attached question based on the attached graphs

The per capita birth (b) and death (d) rates are measured for two populations across a range of population sizes in the attached figure. The equation for exponential growth rate is dN/dt-rN where the per capita growth rate is r=(b-d). The equation for logistic population growth rate is dN/dt-rN(1-N/K). With logistic growth, r varies as a function of the population size with density-dependent birth and/or death rates.
