Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is A)  The amount of grass will increase, and the number of frogs will decrease.

Explanation:

As from the above illustration, we can see that the grasshoppers feed on grass. The frogs feed on the grasshoppers.

If most of the grasshoppers are killed, then the grass will have fewer organisms to feed on it. As a result, the amount of grass will increase.

Reduction in the population of grasshoppers will mean that there is lesser food available for the frogs. As a result, the frogs will compete for food. Most will migrate, others might get killed due to lack of food. Hence, the population of frogs will reduce.
