The Arctic fox has to compete with other predators for its food sources. The main food sources for the Arctic fox are rabbits and other small rodents. What would happen if competition for food in the Arctic increased and it was difficult for the Arctic fox to find its prey? A) The Arctic fox population will decline. B) The Arctic fox population will increase. C) The Arctic fox population will remain the same. D) The Arctic fox population will increase and then decrease only slightly.

A) The Arctic fox population will decline.

Explanation:

The Arctic fox's survival is dependent on the majorly on the availability of enough rabbits and other small rodents, on which they derive nutrition from and ensures they reproduce more. Increase in interspecific competition for these same limited resources that are share with other  predators in the Artic would most likely have a negative influence on the population of the Arctic fox.

The Arctic fox population would decline as food becomes scarce due to interspecific competition. Only few individuals of the Arctic fox would be able to survive, as reproduction also would reduce.

micro/nanoscale topography surface exhibits many prominent properties and is extensively employed in biomedical device, microfluidic device and energy device fabrication. additionally, the clinical applications of biomaterials can be largely expanded with of nanostructured surfaces.
