NEET Solved Paper 2017 Question 29
Question: Asymptote in a logistic growth curve is obtained when
Options:
A) K < N
B) The value of ‘r’ approaches zero
C) K = N
D) K > N
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- A population growing in a habitat with limited resources shows logistic growth curve. For logistic growth $ \frac{dN}{dt}=rN( \frac{K-N}{K} ) $ If $ K=N $ then $ \frac{K-N}{K}=0 $
$ \therefore $ the $ \frac{dN}{dt}=0, $ the population reaches asymptote.
