The food chain that is shown in the food web could be any of the following:
- tree → deer → mountain lion
- grass → rabbit → mountain lion
- grass → rabbit → hawk
- grass → grasshopper → frog → snake → fox
- grass → grasshopper → snake → hawk
- grass → grasshopper → snake → fox → mountain lion
- tree → caterpillar → robin → fox → mountain lion
<h3 /><h3>FURTHER EXPLANATION</h3>
A food chain shows a unidirectional feeding relationship among organisms in an ecosystem. The organisms occupy a certain "place" in the food chain called trophic level. Food chains may have several trophic levels which always begin with the producers.
- Producers are organisms which make their own food. Plants are examples of producers.
- The organisms the directly feed on the plants are called the primary consumers. They are either herbivores or omnivores.
- The organisms that feed on the primary consumers directly are called secondary consumers. Those that feed on the secondary consumers are called tertiary consumers and quaternary consumers feed on tertiary consumers. These are either omnivores or carnivores.
- The apex predator is the animal at the top of the food chain. It is preys on the organisms in the lower trophic levels but nothing preys on it.
A food web, on the other hand, is a series of food chains showing the interdependence of organisms in an ecosystem.

30.6 • 150 is the same as 4,500 + 90, or 4,590 million kilometers, oddly enough, this isn't one of the options for an answer. Perhaps there was a typo?
Answer: Genetics and Pressures
Explanation:
For natural selection to occur, a population must have a wide variety of individuals with different traits. For example, natural selection would not influence fish body color if all individuals in a population were exactly the same color. Variation of scale color can help a fish species have a higher chance of survival by confusing predators as to what species they are.
Reproductive strategies represent a set of behavioral, morphological, and physiological adaptations that facilitate access to potential mates, improve the chances of mating and fertilization, and enhance infant survival. Male peacocks have bright, big tail feathers, for example, to attract females. If an organism has a high appeal, this will make them more likely to be able to meet and continue the survival of the species.
Environmental pressures, such as plant death, could influence the survival of herbivorous organisms. Say a small land creature consisted off grass, and an epidemic killed all the grass in their region. They would either die off, or they would evolve to find different types of food. The former could reduce population, while the latter could increase it.
