Answer:

C)  hunting and killing the snakes on the farm

Explanation:

Hunting and killing the snakes on the farm would lead to an increase in the rodent population. Snakes and rodents comprise a predator-prey relationship in an ecosystem. If you remove the predator, the prey population will logically increase.

Answer:

A. Hunting and killing the snakes on the farm

Explanation:

Snakes are naturally born predators and rodents such as rats and mice serve as their preys. Hence, their presence on the farm will limit the population of rodents in such farm.

<em>Therefore, hunting and killing all the snakes on the farm will allow rodent population to flourish, leading to a spike in their population.</em>

The correct option is A.

prisoha [69]
The correct answer is d.

Carbohydrates are a very important part of an athlete's diet, since they provide the necessary energy for competition and endurance, but also help in the process of muscle gain.

The amount of carbohydrates that Shana should consume depend heavily on the intensity of her exercise activities. For a moderate level of exercise, which equals to 1 hour of exercise daily, a person should consume 5-7 g/kg of body weight. For a high level of exercise (1-3 hours of daily exercise), a person should consume 6-10 g/kg.

Guessing that Shana will perform a high level of exercise and based on her weight (135 lb or 61.2 kg), Shana should consume 366 to 610 g of carbohydrates daily.
