Lionfish are considered invasive species (they spread and cause damage to the environment) to the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Georgia. They have no known predators and are able to survive on the available food and resources.

Which population growth curve BEST matches the current population growth of lionfish on the Atlantic coast of Georgia?

Question 6 options:

A. Line 2 because it shows the logistic growth of the population

B. Line 1 because it shows exponential growth of the population

C. Line 1 because it shows linear growth of the population

D. Line 2 because it shows the population slowing down and then speeding up.
