23. exponential tells us that, under ideal conditions, the
growth model future size of the population depends on the
current size of the population, the intrinsic
rate of the population, and the amount of
time over which the population grows

24. intrinsic growth rate the maximum potential for growth of a
population
under ideal conditions with unlimited resources
