The reason why exponential functions govern population growth rate is similar to the way spring oscillators work.The rate at which a population grows,its rate of change with respect to time,depends on how many individuals are in the population to begin with: the more individuals available to procreate the more offspring can be produced.Therefore,the equation that governs the growth of populations is a function whose rate of change (slope)is proportional to itself.This is exactly the definition of an exponential to begin with.

In a(n)____ plot,the real numerical values are used in the plot.
