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.

One of the most common methods of differentiating between early hominid stages of human evolution is through examining what?
REY [17]

The early hominid stages can be differentiated from one another based on the complexity of the tools used by these species. The tool evolved along with the evolution of the humans. The more the hominids evolved by more complex their tools became.  The tools made by the earliest hominids were used to fish out the termites. These tool developed and became more widely used as the humans evolved.

Hence, the answer is 'by observing the complexity of the tools'.

How do eukaryotic cells carry out the processes they need to live?​
Sidana [21]
