  • Study the population growth curves (A and B ) in the given graph and select the incorrect option.

    A
    Curve 'A' shows exponential growth, represented by equation `(dN)/(dt) = rN`.
    B
    Curve 'B' shows logistic growth, represented by equation `(dN)/(dt) = rN ((K-N)/(K))`
    C
    Exponential growth curve is considered as more realistic than the logistic growth curve.
    D
    Curve 'A' can also be represented by equation `N_(t) = N_(0)e^(rt)`.
