2. The phase where reproduction rates and death rates are balanced; nutrient levels are decreasing and waste levels are increasing.

  • death/decline
  • stationary
  • log/exponential
  • lag

3. The phase where organisms are adjusting to their surroundings. Population remains constant.

  • stationary
  • death/decline
  • lag
  • log/exponential

4. The phase where population size is doubling with each new generation. The length of this phase depends on how fast they reproduce.

  • log/exponential
  • death/decline
  • lag
  • stationary

5. The growth curve applies to which kind of culture

  • open
  • closed
  • continuous
  • batch
