Ps. This took a long time so I didn’t do this for nothing I want to help y’all out because I was looking for help but no one posted this test answers so I did it for y’all guys
@Idk-- YOU GOT ME 100%!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSO MUCH. btw, im in Oregon Connections Academy, and all of these are right as of April 6 2022
THANK YOU THANK YOU AGAIN
I have to tell myself again in all caps... I GOT 100%!!!!!!!!!!!
same im in Oregon 100% as of 4/21/2022
thank you :)
I'll be glad to check your answer.
If the birth rate were over 3 per woman, then the population would grow.
Try again.
You're welcome.

The factor that would NOT encourage a population to experience exponential growth is d) large-scale natural disaster.
To determine the correct answer, we need to understand what exponential growth means in population dynamics. Exponential growth occurs when a population's size increases at an accelerating rate over time.
Let's analyze each option to see which factor would not lead to exponential growth:
a) Constant birth rate: If the birth rate remains constant, without any decrease, the population can continue to grow exponentially since each generation would have roughly the same number of offspring as the previous one.
b) Surplus of food: When a population has an abundant supply of food, it can lead to increased reproduction and survival rates. This abundance of resources can contribute to exponential population growth.
c) Lack of disease: The absence of diseases can enable individuals to have higher survival rates and contribute more to the population growth, potentially leading to exponential growth.
d) Large-scale natural disaster: A large-scale natural disaster, such as a hurricane, earthquake, or flood, can cause significant loss of life and destruction of resources. This event would likely decrease the population size and hinder its ability to experience exponential growth.
Therefore, the correct answer is d) large-scale natural disaster, as it would not encourage a population to experience exponential growth.
