Exponential growth occurs when numbers increase by a certain factor in each successive time period. Logistic growth is population growth that starts with a minimum number of individuals and reaches a...
Exponential functions increase for all values of x,Logistic growth patterns appear to increase exponentially however they eventually platou out on a maximum y value
A logistic growth will at first approximate an exponential growth - until it approximates the "saturation" value, when it begins to increase less quickly.
