Answer: E. The population size will drop until the numbers reach the carrying capacity.

A carrying capacity of the ecosystem is the number of individuals in the population of species a ecosystem can sustain on the basis of availability of resources (food, shelter). Conservationists established that the carrying capacity of a population of deer in an extensive geographical area is 945 which increased to 1,100. This sudden increase in the population of deer, will result in depletion of resources, hence, carrying capacity of the ecosystem cannot sustain increased members of the population. Therefore, the population size will drop until the numbers reach the carrying capacity.

The correct option is E.
The carrying capacity of a biological specie in an ecosystem refers to the maximum population size of the specie that the environment can sustain indefinitely given all the resources that are available in the environment. When the number of living organism in an ecosystem is above the carrying capacity, the number of death among the specie will increase until the carrying capacity is reached.

Helga [31]

The correct answer is option (A) Variation in the strawberry plants.

When the effect of fertilizer on the growth of two strawberry plants is tested, unavoidable source of experimental error is the variation in the strawberry plants. Variation refers to the deviation or differences from the normal plant which can be due to genetic variation. It is due to change in the DNA sequence. If any one of the two plants being tested show variation, the rate of metabolism differs and changes the growth pattern of the plant. The rate of absorption of water and nutrients is effected which brings change in the growth of the plant and causes an error in the experiment and the result.
