Answer:

The correct answer is option b) "obesogenic environments".

Explanation:

According to the article of Lake A "Obesogenic environments: exploring the built and food environments" (2006), an obesogenic environment is defined as "'the sum of influences that the surroundings, opportunities, or conditions of life have on promoting obesity in individuals or populations". This kind of environment is presented in the US and other developed countries, which contrast with the environment in developing countries who may suffer from famine and starvation.

If red foxes were to go extinct, what would be the two most likely effects on the ecosystem
wel
Red foxes are omnivores. Their diet includes small animals such as  birds, squirrels, rabbits and mice, but also berries, grasses and insects such as crickets, caterpillars, grasshoppers and beetles. Red foxes are therefore primary as well as secondary consumers, and even apex predators. Their removal from an ecosystem would most likely reduce the predation pressure on small animals and insects, and may result in population explosions of these prey animals. This in turn may result in additional pressure on the ecosystem as these animals exceed the carrying capacity, and could lead to other plant and animal species within the food web being decimated. Basically, the balance of the ecosystem would be lost until a new equilibrium can be established.
