The data showed that all three populations were stable. Then the penguin population decreased suddenly. What will likely happen to the size of the sardine population as a result?
stay the same. The size of its resource population did not change, so the amount of energy storage molecules available for the sardines did not change. There will be the same number of births and deaths in the sardine population.
decrease. A decrease in one population causes a decrease in the sizes of all other populations in the ecosystem.
increase. The smaller penguin population will leave more energy storage molecules available for the sardine population to reproduce more. This will lead to more births in the sardine population.
increase. The smaller penguin population will need fewer energy storage molecules, so they will eat fewer sardines. This will lead to fewer deaths than births in the sardine population.

In a mountain region, tigers eat wild pigs, and wild pigs eat worms. In the last 5 years, the sizes of the populations have been stable, but recently the tiger population has increased. What will likely happen to the worm population?
increase. The larger tiger population will lead to fewer wild pigs. The smaller wild pig population will need fewer energy storage molecules to reproduce, so they will eat fewer worms. This will lead to more births than deaths in the worm population.
increase. An increase in the size of any population leads to an increase in the sizes of all other populations in an ecosystem.
stay the same. Tigers do not eat worms, so the number of births and deaths in the worm population will stay the same.
decrease. The larger tiger population will leave fewer energy storage molecules available in the ecosystem for the worm population, so there will be fewer births in the worm population.
