Answer:
The king snakes will be attacked and eaten by predators.
Explanation:
Mimicry can be described as a situation whereby an organism have the ability to imitate or copy one or more traits or character of another organism.
This can be described as a form of camouflage that organism exhibit to avoid been killed by predators, or to deceive other organism, by pretending to be one its species in order to kill it.
In the case, the harmless king snakes was trying to present itself as a harmful snake by mimicking the venomous coral snakes. Therefore, when it found itself where the coral snake are not wanted, it will be killed, because , it will be seen as a coral snake due to the mimicry process.
The number of predators and preys change from time to time following
cycles. Whenever there is fewer prey, predators start dying because they
have not enough to eat; however, that provokes the population of prey
to be increased while there are fewer predators. So if suddenly the
number of prey gets bigger, regardless of the number of predators, the
cycles get disturbed by this sudden occurrence. The predators will get
more to hunt, therefore getting more violent.
The primary consumers like rabbits or other small animals that are normally eaten by the secondary consumers (snakes) would over populate and eat all of the producers (plants) and the plants would die out. This would eventually lead to the decrease of the primary consumer (rabbit/small animals) population.
