Answer:

decline: decrease

Explanation:

Transpiration is the loss of water from stomata by the process of evaporation. It occurs by the process of diffusion and is driven by the concentration gradient of water vapor. The higher the concentration gradient between air and leaf cells, the higher is the rate of diffusion of water.

On a sunny day, the rate of transpiration is higher since air is less humid and the concentration of water inside the leaf is higher. On the other hand, the air is more humid on a rainy day. The increased water vapor content of air reduces the concentration gradient between air and leaf cells. The reduced concentration gradient decreases the rate of transpiration.

A few years after a prey species population decreases, the _____. A. prey population will exceed carrying capacity B. predator p
ikadub [295]

Answer:

D. predator population will decrease

Explanation:

If the population of prey species decreases then the competition between the predator population will increase and natural selection will act on them. So nature will select those individuals among predators who are more fit and adapted and less fit individuals will die.

So a few year after the predator population will decrease as there are not enough prey to support the large population of predators which was present when prey were abundant. Therefore the correct answer is D.

The diagram below shows a food web in a woodland.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is A.  X, because organism X has the same role as the grasshopper</em>

Explanation:

In a food chain or a food web, a primary producer can be described as an organism which feeds on producers. The producers, in this case, are the corn stalks. Grasshoppers are primary consumers in this food web because they feed on the corn stalks. X is also a primary producer, just like grasshopper, because it feeds on the corn stalks which are the producers. Hence, option A is correct.
