What are the key characteristics of an exponential function?

• The key characteristics of an exponential function are that it grows at an increasing rate and never crosses the x-axis.

• The key characteristics of an exponential function are that it shrinks at an increasing rate and never crosses the x-axis.

• The key characteristics of an exponential function are that it grows at a constant rate and never crosses the x-axis.

• The key characteristics of an exponential function are that it grows at a decreasing rate and always crosses the x-axis.
