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.

Which molecule is less soluble in water--a fat or a phospholipid? Why?
VladimirAG [237]
Fat is less soluble in water compared to phospholipids.
This is because, fat is made up of three molecules of fatty acids which are not polar in nature at all, thus they mixed very poorly with water.
Phospholipids on the other hand has its molecules divided into two distinct regions, the head and the tail region. The head region is hydrophillic and it is polar in nature, that is, it mixes well with water. The tail region is made up of the fatty components  and it is hydrophobic.
Because of this difference in structure, phospholipid will dissolve better in water.
