The correct answer is that the population of foxes will also decrease in size.

The population of the fox is majorly dependent on the population of mice as the source of their food, and due to a fatal disease infecting the mice population, the population of the fox who majorly consumes mice would also get infected with the same deadly disease.

This condition will eventually result in declining of fox population due to their over-dependence on mice as the source of food.

What are some structural explanation for why animal and plant cells differ in response to changes in the extracellular space?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The animal cells produce the collagen but the plant cell does not produce collagen that responsible for producing the complex structure of protein and carbohydrates that is called extracellular matrix cell. Collagen is an important protein that provides strength to the structural integrity. On the other hand, the plant has not collagen so they have their extracellular supportive structure. The cell wall is so rigid and covered by the cell that protects it that provides shape and support to it. The plant cell also made up of molecules and these are called cellulose. These cellulose structured into the fibers that are called micro-fibrils
