Chapter 55.3, Problem 2R
Summary Introduction
To review:
The species interaction that is able to control the coexistence of competing grass species and decipher how it promotes species diversity.
Introduction:
The interaction between the lynx and hare is of the predation. The hares are known to be eaten by the lynx. If there are more number of hares present in the surroundings, there are more chances that they will be seen and captured by the predators.

Which of these factors is least likely to explain this "win-win" situation? O Leaving more natural forest increases the biodiversity at the genetic, species, and ecosystems levels in the entire area. O Leaving some of the natural forest is a win for farmers because the forest provides ecosystem services, such as pollination, that farmers rely on for a successful business. O Many of the natural forest species will be able to utilize the coffee plantation habitat. O If the natural forests can provide some valuable ecosystem functions like pest management, the farmers can use fewer pesticides that harm the environment. Submit Request Answerarrow_forward
