How are the J and S-shaped curves of population growth different from each other?

J-shaped curve:

1. A graph curve that depicts the situation in which an organism's population density increases rapidly in an exponential or logarithmic form in a new environment, but then abruptly stops.

S-shaped curve:

1. A growth pattern in which, in a new environment, an organism's population density increases slowly at first, in a positive acceleration phase; then rapidly, approaching an exponential growth rate.

J-shaped curve	S-shaped curve
1.It represents exponential growth .	1.It represents a sigmoidal growth of the population
2.It has limited resources.	2. It has unlimited resources.
3.It consists of lag and log phases .	3.It also includes a deceleration phase.
4.It doesn't reach the stationary phase .	4.Stationary phase is achieved .
