Alex studied the table and made a prediction about the changing population numbers of various animals in a habitat. Which statement is the most accurate prediction about the rise in population of rabbits over the last 4 years according to the roles each animal might play in a food chain?

Many things can threaten the survival of animal species. What would be the greatest threat to a large predator like the mountain lion?

Which best explains the increase in the number of ducks in Treyburn Park?

Foxes decreased, and the ducks had fewer predators, so more ducks survived.

Squirrels decreased, and the ducks had fewer predators, so more ducks survived.

Rabbits began to increase and ate more squirrels, so foxes had fewer food sources and left the park.

Heavy rains in 2010 helped develop another large pond, so the duck habitat was increased and that allowed more ducks to survive.

Alex studied the table and made a prediction about the changing population numbers of various animals in a habitat. Which statement is the most accurate prediction about the rise in population of rabbits over the last 4 years according to the roles each animal might play in a food chain?

The rabbit population increased because the squirrel population increased.

The rabbit population increased because the duck population increased.

The rabbit population increased because the squirrel population decreased.

Some spiders capture insects in their webs and consume them. If the insect population decreased significantly, what would happen to the spider population?

The spider population would decrease because of the reduction of one of its major sources of food.

The spider population would increase because the insects would not damage their webs as much, and spiders would use less energy to produce new webs.

The spider population would remain about the same because the spider would find new sources of food.

The spider population would increase because it would begin to eat larger species of animals which would supply more food.

How is most of the growth beneath the trees of very old, thick forests prevented?

The thick canopy of the trees prevents most all of the sunlight from reaching the ground.

The thick root systems of the trees consume most of the water and soil nutrients.

The thick canopy of the leaves prevents most all the water from reaching the ground.

The thick canopy of leaves makes the forest floor very cold and prevents seeds from growing.

The Grey Squirrel makes its home in the forest trees. If these forest trees are cut down, what might happen to the Grey Squirrel?

The population of Grey Squirrels will decline because the habitats will shrink.

The population of Grey Squirrels will not be impacted because they will adapt quickly to the new ecosystem.

The population of Grey Squirrels will increase because more food will be available from the ground.

The population of Grey Squirrels will increase because they will move to a new ecosystem.
