Consider two forests: one is an undisturbed old-growth forest,and the other has recently been logged.In which forest are species likely to experience exponential growth,and why?
A)old growth,because the stable conditions would favor exponential growth of all species in the forest
B)old growth,because each of the species is well established and can produce many offspring
C)logged,because the disturbed forest affords more resources for increased specific populations to grow
D)equally probable in old-growth and logged forests,because disturbed and stable habitats have equal opportunity for tree seedlings to survive
