Forest A Forest B
Two forest communities are shown here at different stages of succession. The different plant species and their relative abundance are
indicated by the diagrams. Researchers find that rodent populations are more abundant in forest A while deer populations are more
abundant in forest B. What describes the difference in the populations observed by the researchers?
es ))
A)
Forest A has is in an earlier stage of succession and does not have as many
mature trees upon which deer feed.
B)
Forest B lacks grasses due to lower light levels at the ground, removing a
species that is toxic to most deer populations.
0)
Forest B lacks the canopy closure required for protection of rodents from
predators, which decreases the rodent populations.
D)
Forest A is at a later stage of succession, allowing for more rodents to
migrate into the area and be found at a higher abundance.

answer: a) a compound microscope has a greater magnification ability than a simple microscope.

explanation:

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.
