Population Growth
An activity from the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI) intended for students to explore the growth of a population of rabbits or microorganisms over a fixed period time. Students explore the environmental conditions to illustrate several essential requirements for life.
An extension activity introduces an antibiotic into the microorganisms' environment to show how they affect population growth.
