Krakatoa was an indonesian island that was completely obliterated in 1886, when a massive volcano exploded on the island. underwater lava flows slowly rebuilt a new island, called anak krakatau, by 1927. on anak krakatau, the first organisms to arrive were small weeds. the weeds then gave way to coconut trees. land crabs, seagulls, and rats began to colonize the island. by the 1980's, coconut trees gave way to tropical eucalyptus trees inland. wild pigs and large lizards colonized the island. in the future, a mature rainforest will re-grow.

one would be wind another would be water density

answer: decrease

a limiting factor is the one which decrease the abundance, distribution and causes extinction of the population of species in a ecosystem. here, predators including hawks, owls and snakes are the limiting factor for the population of mexican free tailed bat.   although bats are nocturnal animals as they forge for food at night these predators also may remain active during night which can decrease the population of the mexican free-tailed bats. also, these bats eat only one type of insects that are moths. the food can also be a limiting factor as all 400 members are dependent upon same type of food needs that are moths. the decrease in the moth population can cause decrease in population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.

therefore, the scenarios will most likely to decrease the population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.
