An autonomous differential equation has no explicit dependence on the independent time variable: its vector field depends only on the current state. The two families of nullclines are
(1)
On the first family the horizontal velocity is zero; on the second the vertical velocity is zero. A critical point of a dynamical system is a state where both components vanish. It gives a constant solution, also called an equilibrium.
