Question

a population is growing at a rate of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32. which type of growth does this describe?
linear
logistic
exponential
negative

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In an exponential - growth pattern, the quantity increases by a constant ratio. Here, each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2 (4÷2 = 2, 8÷4 = 2, 16÷8 = 2, 32÷16 = 2). Linear growth has a constant difference, logistic growth has an S - shaped curve with a carrying capacity, and negative growth means a decrease.

Answer:

C. exponential
