प्रश्न
Describe briefly sigmoid growth curve.
उत्तर
A sigmoid growth curve indicates that geometric growth is not long-term sustainable. Certain cells perish. Growth is slowed down by limited nutrient supply. The result is a stationary phase. In fact, there might be a deterioration. When the growth is plotted against time, a standard sigmoid or S-curve is produced.
Sigmoid growth curve
The S-curve of growth is typical of most living organisms in their natural environment. It also occurs in the cells, tissues, and organs of plants.
