Gather from Government Census data the population figures for India for the last 100 years, plot them and check which growth pattern is evident.
Which of the following statements concerning population growth and its influencing factors are NOT correct? S1: Exponential growth occurs when resources in the habitat are unlimited, allowing a species to fully realize its innate potential to grow. S2: The intrinsic rate of natural increase (r) is a parameter exclusive to the Verhulst-Pearl Logistic Growth equation, reflecting its density-dependent nature. S3: Governmental interventions to control human population growth exemplify societal attempts to manage factors similar to carrying capacity in natural ecosystems. S4: In a newly colonized habitat, immigration is generally less significant for population growth compared to birth rates. S5: The logistic growth model is regarded as more realistic because it incorporates the concept of finite and eventually limiting resources.
