Question

____________ proposed that populations would continue to grow until its upper limits had been reached or when resources became scarce. A. Cuvier B. Lamarck C. Linnaeus D. Malthus

Answer 1

D is the answer, since Malthus proposes the principle that human populations grow exponentially (i.e., doubling with each cycle) while food production grows at an arithmetic rate (i.e. by the repeated addition of a uniform increment in each uniform interval of time)
