2 less food and more competition for panthers
3 fewer deer and more competition for panthers
4 more food for deer and less competition for panthers and leopards

Answer:

3. Fewer deer and more competition for panthers.

Explanation:

The answer that is most probable in this situation is that the number of panthers has decreased, causing there to be more deer for the leopards to prey on. Before this occurred, the leopards and panthers probably competed to prey on deer. If there are significantly less panthers around, more leopards will be able to prey on the deer in the ecosystem.This can also decrease the deer population and make more competition for the panthers, as their numbers would be small compared to those of the leopards.

Below are the seven properties of water that make life possible on Earth. Describe five of these properties and provide an examp
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Water in its liquid form has a boiling point temperature close to 100°C. As a result of the network of hydrogen bonding present between water molecules, a high input of energy is required to transform one gram of liquid water into water vapor, an energy requirement called the heat of vaporization.

Cohesion is responsible for the transport of the water column in plants. Adhesion is water attracted to other material.

Water has a greater surface tension than most other liquids because hydrogen bonds among surface water molecules resist stretching or breaking the surface.

Specific Heat is the amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost for one gram of a substance to change its temperature by 1*C.

Density is when hydrogen bonds in water expand as it warms and contracts as it cools. The hydrogen bonds keeps the molecules far enough a part to make ice have fewer molecules.
