Summary Introduction
To describe:
The two major forms of environmental resistance with their examples.
Introduction:
Exponential growth refers to the growth rate that becomes rapid (even more) in proportion to the growing total size or a total number of the population. The resistance of environment ensures that no natural population will experience exponential growth for a longer duration of time.
