population growth begins to slow down
When there are limited resources. when there is competition for resources. apex :)
The Population has gone through ecological sucsession
When a population's growth slows or stops after exponential growth, it may reach its carrying capacity. This is the maximum number of individuals that an environment can support due to limited resources. The population stabilizes and can fluctuate around this carrying capacity.
Exponential growth occurs when numbers increase by a certain factor in each successive time period. Logistic growth is population growth that starts with a minimum number of individuals and reaches a maximum depending on the carrying capacity of the habitat. In exponential growth population grows slowly when it's small, but as the population gets larger, growth speeds up. In logistic growth, when the population is small, the growth rate is fast because there are plenty of natural resources. (Logistic) As the population approaches the carrying capacity, resources become scarce. Completion for food, shelter and mates increases between individuals of a population. As a result, the growth rate slows. Exponential growth, grows fast in the beginning and then slows down. Logistic growth grows slow in the beginning and then speeds up.
exponential
linear growth is the equal growth in a equal time period without any aspects such as food to change it. Exponential growth is the growth of the population based on the culmulative things in the environment affecting the population of the area

Logistic growth occurs when a population's growth rate decreases as the population size approaches the carrying capacity of its environment. This type of growth involves an initial rapid increase in population size followed by a slowing down as resources become limited. Logistic growth is characterized by an S-shaped curve.
The graph of a logistic population growth is shaped like the letter "S" or an elongated "S". It starts with exponential growth, then slows down as it approaches the carrying capacity before eventually leveling off.
