Question

Explain limited growth and unlimited growth with example

Answer 1

Answer:

Biological exponential growth is the exponential growth of biological organisms. When the resources availability is unlimited in the habitat, the population of an organism living in the habitat grows in an exponential or geometric fashion.

Explanation:

One of the best examples of exponential growth is observed in bacteria. It takes bacteria roughly an hour to reproduce through prokaryotic fission. If we placed 100 bacteria in an environment and recorded the population size each hour, we would observe exponential growth. ... A population cannot grow exponentially forever.19-Mar-2015

Answer 2

Unlimited Growth

• Unlimited growth is also known as the indefinite type of growth seen in the root and shoot system of the plant.
• The roots, branches, and leaves of a plant continue to grow as long as the resources are available
• This occurs due to the presence of Meristematic tissue which is the site of continuous cell divisions and growth.
• These cells continue to produce cells that get differentiated and become permanent in nature.
• Meristem control both primary and secondary growth in plants.
• Example of unlimited growth- All plants show unlimited growth.

Limited growth

• Limited growth is known as definite growth that ceases after a certain period.
• Growth in animals is also known as a definite type of growth.
• The embryonic stage in animals is marked by rapid cellular division ultimately leading to the development of organs.
• This growth continues till adolescents.
• No growth is seen after adolescence.
• The reduced deposition of bone and cessation of cell division limits the growth of mammals.
