A mountain lion population recently experienced a drop in population size. The best  limiting factor that is involved is- The deer population experienced a rapid decline due to a parasite.

Only this could be the best possible answer out of all other options because when there are no deer, there is no food for the lions.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, The deer population experienced a rapid decline due to a parasite

Explanation:

As the prime food of lion in the jungle is deer, so if the population of deer is to be considered as declining , there will be some certain amount of negative impact on the population of lion as well.

The parasite attacking the deer causes their death , due to which very few deer are available as food to the lions thus the lions reach a stage of starvation after a certain period of time . In absence of food they may start dying as well thus the factor "The deer population experienced a rapid decline due to a parasite" is a limiting factor.

In a food chain 200 kg of wheat is fed on by 18 kg of mice which in turn are eaten by 1kg of hawk. What is the percentage energy
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

0.1% of energy

Explanation:

Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers absorb only 0.1 or 1%.

From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is dissipated in the environment.  

At each trophic level occurs an energy transfer to the next, with only 10% being usable in each of them. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time.

If wheat transferred 10% of the energy to mice, and of that 10% mice transferred 10% of the energy to hawk, then the percentage of energy transferred from the first trophic level to the third equals 0.1%.

10% (1st TL-2nd TL) / 10% (2nd TL - 3rd TL) = 0.1% (1stTL - 3rd TL)

<em>TL = Trophic level           </em>
