What has a greater impact on the final population size of a family: the number of children in each generation, or the time between generations? Defend your claim with evidence from above. Remember to refer to actual data, but not every single data point, just examples of ones that support the claim.

The number of children. The number of children has an exponential impact on the population size while the time between generation has a linear impact on the population size.

For referring to data, you can say that when the number of children is graphed with the population, it is exponential (upwards curve), and the time in between is linear (makes a line).
