The population of an insect species shows an explosive increase in numbers during rainy season followed by its disappearance at the end of the season. What does this show?

Explanation

The J-shape of growth pattern can be easily observed in algae blooms, some insects, annual plants and the lemmings of Tundra. In the beginning, the density of the population increases rapidly in compound interest fashion and then stops abruptly as the environmental resistance or other limiting factors become effective. These factors may be food, space, seasonal (frost, excessive rain etc.) or the termination of the reproduction session.In the rainy season, there is an abundance of resources such as water, food, and suitable breeding sites for the insect species. This abundance allows the population to grow rapidly. With favorable conditions, the insect population experiences a surge in reproduction and population growth. More individuals are born, and they can successfully develop into adults. As the rainy season ends, resource availability starts to decline. Water sources may dry up, food becomes scarcer, and the breeding conditions become less favorable. This leads to increased competition for limited resources.
