Alligators in wetland regions normally feed on animals such as shorebirds.
Shorebirds usually feed on small fish
and frogs to survive. Recently, scientists
released a large number of alligators

into a wetland region. Scientists expect
that as a result of this increase in the
alligator population, the population of
small fish and frogs will
A. remain about the same.
B. rapidly decrease.
C. become extinct.
D. notably increase.

Explanation:

Increase

the answer is: reproductively

i think i spelled it wrong lol

anyways hope i

-lavira: )

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.
