D. weeds growing in a field that recently experienced a wildfire
Weeds growing in a field that recently experienced a wildfire would be most likely to experience exponential population growth, as they have access to abundant resources and space for growth without competition from other species. The lack of competition and abundance of resources would allow the weed population to grow rapidly and exponentially.
Which of the following populations would be most likely to experience exponential population growth?
A. brown trout competing with rainbow trout for limited food resources
B. rabbits living in a grassland alongside a healthy population of red foxes
C. tomato plants growing in a clay pot
