Like logistic growth, exponential growth A. reaches its carrying capacity over time. B. can be plotted in the shape of an S curve. C. exhibits a period of rapid growth as the population size increases. D. is slowed by limiting factors.

The answer is C. exhibits a period of rapid growth as the population size increases.

Logistic growth and exponential growth are types of population growth. Both types exhibit a period of rapid growth as the population size increases. But, there are some differences between these two types. Population with logistic growth reaches its carrying capacity over time, but exponential growth do not. Logistic growth can be plotted in the shape of an S-curve, and exponential growth can be plotted in the shape of an J curve. Also, logistic growth is slowed by limiting factors. When there are no limiting factors, population exhibits exponential growth.
