Unfortunately this question is incomplete as it does not provide any choices. However, there are certain ecological factors that can cause a population of mice to decrease quickly. One is an increase in predation. Many carnivorous animals prey on mice, including birds of prey, foxes and various other predacious mammals, as mice are small and high in number. This means a lot of mice are removed from the population through predation. Any increase in predator pressure could quickly disturb the balance in the mice population. Another factor is a disease. Some diseases can seriously deplete populations of animals, with the remaining hardier individuals developing immunity.

An increase in predation will decrease the population because more members are likely to be consumed by the growing number of predators.

How does carbon dioxide affect the ecosystem
FrozenT [24]

As a greenhouse gas that absorbs heat, CO2 raises the temperature of the atmosphere. We refer to this as global warming. The glaciers will melt more quickly as the world's temperature rises, raising sea levels and bringing on disaster. More power is consumed for air conditioning as the temperature rises, which further raises the air's CO2 level.

Since coal is the primary fuel utilized in the creation of power. This creates a vicious cycle.

BB X Bb = BB, Bb, BB, Bb

Explanation:

From the analogy shown, it is obvious that both parents are gene with black fur. During such crossing, the offspring are two homozygous dominant black fur and two heterozygous dominant black fur
