The incident that you would least expect to happen next is Desert sage bush populations grow uncontrollably.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The picture depicts a food chain in the Grand Basin Desert in Nevada. All the  animals in the food chain are either prey or predators or both. If A company that makes snakeskin wallets set up a shop in the area, the population of Mojave rattlesnakes will see a decline.

The rattlesnakes preys upon kangaroo rat and jack rabbit indicating that as the rattle snake population declines, the population of kangaroo rat and jack rabbit will increase. Kangaroo rat feeds on desert sage bush.So when their numbers increases, the desert sage bush population will decrease.

Desert sage bush population growing uncontrollably is the least expected possibility.

Kangaroo rat population will show an increase  and Cougars will eat more jack rabbits than usual will be least expected.

Explanation:

The food chain of the Grand Basin in Nevada shows that kangaroo rat is the only eaten by Mojave rattlesnake.

The overtaking of all the Mojave rattlesnake would cause the survival of kangaroo rat because no other predator has its prey on kangaroo rat.

The no eating will lead an increase number of kangaroo rats as long as they live naturally on the trophic level.

It is deduced that kangaroo rat is not transferring any energy to the other trophic level neither the biomass.

Cougars will eat more jack rabbits than usual because they have been preying on Mojave rattle snake and jack rabbit, the disappearance of Mojave rattle snake will cause them rely on cougars which will lead to compete for the food among the species.

There is an accumulation of electrons and the components of the respiratory chain are completely reduced, therefore the respiratory chain stopps working.

Answer:

B) Available energy decreases as trophic levels increase.

Explanation:

Each time an organism consumes energy, it absorbs it. When it dies the energy is released and only some of it is consumed the organism that eats the first organism. This continues and by the end there is very little energy left because most of it was released into the world.

Bacteriophage has a tadpole like structure with a polygonal head and a neck and 6 tails. The polygonal head is formed of carbohydrates, along with the neck and tails. The head has inside it DNA that is its nucleic acid and genetic material. It's not enclosed in any nucleus. It has some proteins inside the head too.

The phage virus attaches itself with bacteria and drills the bacterial cell wall by the neck and pushes the genetic material inside as a mode of infection.
