The human population grows by about 2 percent each year, showing: A. linear growth
B. cubic growth
C. exponential growth
The correct answer is: C. exponential growth.
Explanation: Exponential growth occurs when the increase in a quantity is proportional to its current value, leading to growth that accelerates over time. In the case of human population growth at 2 percent each year, this means that the amount of increase itself grows larger each year as the total population increases, characteristic of exponential growth.
