Answer:

Explanation:

The most likely explanation for why the size of the coyote population remained unchanged between 2006 and 2008 would be that the population reached its carrying capacity of the environment.

Below this number, the population of the organism has the potential to increase while above the carrying capacity, the population has the tendency to decrease. The population of an organism fluctuates around the carrying capacity without any major decrease or increase.
