- You are observing two different species of caterpillars feeding on green shrubs in the Sacramento Mountains. One has bright red and yellow stripes, the other is a nondescript greenish color. You hypothesize that the two species have adopted different antipredation strategies. 1) What would these two strategies be called? 2) Which species would you predict is noxious to potential predators and which species is palatable? 3) Which species would you predict would alter its behavior more in the presence of predators? Why?arrow_forwardMongooses are not native to Hawaii. They were intentionally introduced on all of the islands in 1883 by sugarcane farmers to control rat populations on sugar plantations. They have since greatly increased their population on some islands, while no populations of mongooses are found on the islands of Lana’i and Kaua’i. Which of the following correctly identifies a challenge mongooses would face if they were introduced onto these two islands? A - There is a lack of rats and other food sources on these islands. B - These two islands have no forest reserves compared to the other islands. C - These islands contain no natural predators for mongooses so they would overpopulate. D - These two islands contain native species of birds and reptiles that would compete with the mongooses.arrow_forwardMule Deer Use the passage to answer the question. This image shows a male mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), which is native to western North America. Named for their large ears, mule deer are hunted for sport and food under strict management practices, such as designated hunting seasons and limits on how many deer a hunter can take. A) In a short paragraph, propose a hypothesis to test the effect of a zoned reserve on mule deer populations. Justify your hypothesis based on your knowledge of zoned reserves. B) In 1-2 short paragraphs, outline a field experiment to test your hypothesis on the effect of a zoned reserve on mule deer populations. Describe your control group, experimental group, and the data you would collect. Identify at least two environmental factors that could affect your data collection and how you would address them, if possible.arrow_forward

Essentially, if Totoaba went extinct, what would happen? *This question is being asked for personal knowledge, not for any school assignments!arrow_forwardAssume that for a given population of moose, the per-capita birth rate remains constant with population size. However, as the moose population size increases there is a linear increase in the probability of starvation and subsequent mortality due to intraspecific competition. a) On a single graph, draw the relationship between moose density and the per capita birth and death rates for this population. b) Assume that the population does not experience competition from other species, nor predation. Write out the equation that would best be used to describe the change in population growth from one time interval to another.arrow_forwardO Villay Use the passage to answer the question.
