a. exponential growth
b. growth rate
c. the minimum number of individuals an environment can support
d. logistic growth that starts off fast but slows down as the population gets larger
e. the maximum number of individuals an environment can support

Explanation:

Carrying capacity refers to the largest population size that can be supported by a specific habitat for an indefinite period of time. The concept of carrying capacity assumes that the environment of the habitat should remain constant.

Carrying capacity is represented by letter "K" and changes in response to the changes in the environmental conditions of the system.

For example, good rainfall in grassland would increase its carrying capacity for grazing animals while a drought would reduce it due to reduced availability of food.
