  1. Logistic Growth By, Lizzie H. Peyton Harrison D. Dalby Nick A. Idzkowski

  2. Model of Population Growth Starts out following an exponential growth model but reaches a maximum height due to carrying capacity

  3. Equation: • r- maximum rate of growth • N- number of individuals • K- carrying capacity • As P increases the per capita rate of growth ( ) decreases

  4. Carrying Capacity • Symbolized by K, the maximum population size that a particular environment can sustain • Carrying capacity is decided by several variables, known as limiting factors: • Ex. space, climate, food availability
