Sundews and wolf spiders compete with each other for flies to eat. How would the sudden decrease in the size of the wolf spider

mylen [45]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is A) The sundew population would increase. </em>

Explanation:

Organisms in a community interact with one another in some way or the other.

In the above-mentioned example, sundews and wolf spiders of a community are in competition with each other for food resources. If the population of one of the species i.e wolf spider decreases this means that there would be lesser competition for food resources. As a result, there will be more food present for the sundews. Hence, the population of sundews would increase if the population of wolf spider decreases.
