is the graph a straight line or exponential?

As you can see, there are three parts marked by the dotted lines for you to draw the graph within.
The 1st part of the Graph, namely the part which is at the most bottom and below all the dotted lines, you will have to draw it exponentially.
The 2nd part will be a straight line continuing from the first part.
The 3rd part will also be a straight line, but it will be even more steeper than the 2nd part.
The reason is that the bottom part of the container has a decreasing 'waist' size, hence the rate at which the height increases will get faster and faster, hence the exponential graph.
The 'waist' size at the 2nd part is constant, hence the straight line continuing from the 1st part.
The 'waist' size at the 3rd part is also constant, but much smaller than that of the 2nd part, thus the sudden change in the steepness of the line.
thxs bro! u r the man :)
the first to second part should have no sudden change.
