Answer:

The correct answer is: D: A population of bobcats depends on these rabbits for food.

Explanation:

This answer can only be explained by taking into consideration the information that is being given by both the statements on the question and also the answering options. So basically, the answer depends on logic. The question statement says that from a normal number of around eight kits for cottontail rabbits, and with only one predator, only two of them actually reach maturity, which means that for some reason, the others die along the way. From the answer options, the only one that actually explains WHY these other six kits died before reaching maturity is the last one, as it establishes that bobcats, probably the one predator these cottontail rabbits have, lives nearby and depends on these little bunnies for food. The likelihood is that the bobcats ended up eating the other six kits.

Christianity during the Roman Empire:

  • 313 CE - Christianity spread across the Roman Empire and thus gaining legal status thanks to Constantine's Edict of Milan granting it legal status.
  • 325 CE -  The council of Nicaea established a clear set of beliefs and practices, for christianity at the time.
  • 380 CE - Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire due to the issuing of Theodosius's Edict of Thessalonica.

The Imperial Crisis, also known as the crisis of the third century 235-284 CE, was the period in roman history during which it divided into three  political entities. It caused political instability because of the constant assassinations and betrayals of roman leaders. These constant changes in power caused the weakening of army forces acros the empire. These factors contributed to the downfall of the Roman Empire years latter.
