The maxillary growth pattern follows which type of curve?

Linear
Neural
Exponential
Logarithmic

The correct answer is: Neural

The maxillary growth pattern follows a neural curve because it is influenced by the neural signals that control facial and cranial growth. Linear and exponential curves are not typically observed in biological systems and do not accurately describe the growth of the maxilla. Logarithmic curves are also not applicable as they represent a slow initial growth that accelerates over time, whereas maxillary growth follows a consistent pattern.
