The correct answer is - A. The population of predators could increase.

If in a particular food web a new prey animals are introduced, that will most likely result in the increase of the populations of the predators in that food web. The reason why the populations of the predators would increase is that there will be more pray to hunt, and more food means that the predators can increase in numbers and not suffer from food shortage.

Still, while this the most likely scenario, it has to be taken with a little bit of reserve, as it also depends on what kind of prey animal would be introduced in the food web, and what kind of predators are there in the food web. If lets say a prey animal that is large is introduced, like the buffalo, and the predators in that food web are small to medium sized predators like the genette, caracal, serval, honey badger, than there will be no increase in the predator populations as they will not be able to hunt the introduced pray animal.

andrezito [222]
Dehydration is the loss of too much water in our body  It can be categorized into three types: isotonic, hypotonic and hypertonic. Isotonic dehydration is the most common, which pertains to equal concentrations of the extracellular and intracellular fluids. In this type of dehydration, about same amount of electrolytes and water are ;pst from the body. Hypertonic dehydration is more serious and a very risky IV fluid to administer. This type of dehydration occurs when more electrolytes are lost than water from the body. So, there must be an intake of a fluid more concentrated in electrolytes so that it will cause the water from inside the cells to be attracted to the extracellular fluid. The last type of dehydration, hypotonic dehydration, is the opposite of hypertonic. This is when more of water is lost than electrolytes. So, the fluid to be administered is less concentrated relative to the fluid inside the cells.
