Population Growth The growth G of a population of lower organisms over a day is a
function of the population size n at the beginning of the day. If both n and G are measured in
thousands of organisms, the formula is
a. Make a graph of G versus n. Include values of n up to 40 thousand onganisms.
b. Calculate G(35) and explain in practical terms what your answer means.
c. For what two population levels will the population grow by 5 thousand over a day?
d. If there is no population to start with, of course there will ne no growth. At what other population level will there be no growth?
