Explanation:
Using кривой с насыщением given in the original text, the translation should be "given by a curve with saturation", or "that "saturates". This means that the curve rises then levels off to a plateau.

It is not the same as Кривая насыщения, which is indeed "saturation curve" but means something completely different.

Unanimity can be a bad sign for correctness.
