Question

exponential growth is most likely to occur when conditions are optimal, resources are essentially unlimited, and the number of reproductive individuals increases as the population size grows. which of these populations is most likely to experience exponential growth? a stand of pine trees on a tree plantation that harvests all trees and replants every 35 years a population of deer that has been established in a forest for centuries and has several predator species a population of carp that is released into a new habitat with few predators and plenty of food

Explanation:

Exponential growth occurs with optimal conditions and unlimited resources. The carp population in a new habitat with few predators and plenty of food meets these criteria. The pine - tree plantation has a harvesting cycle which limits growth, and the deer population has predators which control its growth.

Answer:

a population of carp that is released into a new habitat with few predators and plenty of food
