Wildlife ecologists performed a study of bird populations in a newly protected, wooded preserve in central Texas. Results of
their study showed that there were approximately 100 mockingbirds occupying this community in April 2004, and then
approximately 200 mockingbirds in April 2005
What can the ecologists reasonably deduce about the growth of the mockingbird population from this data?
The mockingbird population was most likely in its exponential growth phase from 2004 to 2005
The mockingbird population reached its stabilization phase in 2005
There was no population growth in this population during one year.
The mockingbird population reached its carrying capacity in 2004
