Looking at the web above, each letter represents a species of animal in an ecosystem food web. Which of the following is most likely to cause the greatest decrease in the species B population. A decrease in species C

A decrease in species E

A decrease in species D

A decrease in species A

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.

the answer is a for sure mark brainliest i had got this right on usatestprep

50.23 i believe is correct but don't quote me on that.
