<u>ANSWER:</u>

The resources available for the population have decreased would have caused the change.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • The carrying capacity of a population is the maximum size of population that a species can sustain in the environment using the available factors.
  • When the carrying capacity of a population decreases, it means that the resources for the species are not available in enough quantity to allow the population to sustain and thrive.
  • Insufficient food, space, light and water are major causes for a decrease in the "carrying capacity" of a population.

Which season begins on the vernal equinox
I am Lyosha [343]

The correct answer is - Spring.

The vernal equinox, also known as the spring equinox, marks the beginning of the spring. Its date varies, depending on the year, is it a leap year or not, though the variation is only a day from one year to another, so it can be either on the 20th or 21st of March.

The vernal equinox is not appearing at the same time in both hemispheres. While we do have equinox on both hemispheres, only on one of them is the vernal equinox, while on the other one is the autumn equinox. So we have a situation where in the Northern Hemisphere we have a vernal equinox, but on the Southern Hemisphere we have autumn equinox, and vice versa after approximately six months.

The equinox basically is the day in the year in which the day and the night have the same length.

Sea and land breezes are caused because
rodikova [14]
A sea breeze is a wind that blows from the ocean toward the land during the day; occurs in the spring and summer. A land breeze is just the opposite. It blows from the land toward the ocean, but during the night. The change of the direction of the wind is because of higher and lower pressure amounts over land and sea.
