Limiting Factors to Population Growth: Graphing Population Growth
If any of the limiting factors in an environment change, both animal and plant populations also change. The video explains two different models of growth and the impact of limiting factors. It highlights the carrying capacity of an...

Modeling London's Population
Looking at London's population from 1801–1961 in 20 year increments, high school mathematicians determine if the data can be modeled by a given logistic growth equation. They explain their thinking and determine the values of each...
Curated OER
Graphing Functions
For this graphing functions worksheet, students write functions in logarithmic and exponential forms. They evaluate logarithms and determine the inverse of a function. Students graph functions. This six-page worksheet...

Population Models and Qualitative Analysis, Part 2
In this population model worksheet, students explore models of population growth using the Gompertz growth model and the exponential growth model. They sketch a graph of the slope function and determine possible solutions over time....
Concord Consortium
Concord Consortium: Population Curve: Significance of Breakpoints
Learn about three models of population growth: linear, exponential, and logistic. Then conduct a population experiment to see how populations can work in the real world, and see how linear graphs can help simplify complicated ones.
