If you are referring to a Asimina Triloba, also known as the PawPaw Tree, animals like deer, rabbits, mules, bears, and goats have been known to snack on its fruits. However, the fruits are most often consumed by small mammals such as raccoons, opossums, and foxes. They are usually homes for many species of butterfly larvae, most commonly the Zebra Swallowtail Butterfly.
The PawPaw fruits give off the scent of rotten flesh in order to attract blowflies and carrion beetles for cross pollination.
Answer:
c. number and variety of organisms vs. changing environment
Explanation:
In an ecosystem populations are in dynamic equilibrium with each other, for when a population decreases the population of its predators also decreases, because the various populations are dependent on each other for survival. What we can understand from this is that the diminishing population of a species has caused a change in the environment, making that environment unsuitable for the predator population.
In other words, dynamic equilibrium occurs when the size of a population of a species varies with changes in the environment in which they live. For this reason we can state that the number and variety of organisms vs. changing environment best indicates the dynamic balance of an ecosystem.
The answer is segment Segment
