| The difference is the following: "normally" there is a limit to growth. But the question asks about what would happen in times of "infection." Infection is indeed uncontrollable growth of a parasite which requires some form of treatment as described in P2. |

| Eventually, yes, all exponential growth will end. The infecting parasite (ie fungus) will either be destroyed by the human immune system, or by some agent (ie antifungal) or the infection will kill the host at which point the exponential growth will stop. None of that changes the following: infection leads to growth which will at least begin in an exponential manner. There is only one answer choice that provides a graph that at least begins with exponential growth. |
