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.

The marriage would affect how the output in the economy is calculated by decreasing the labor strength of the economy as the butler is no longer a butler the husband of the woman who employed him.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • In the given case, the output of the economy is very less likely to get affected as the butler and the woman have chosen to continue working in the same way they did before they got married.
  • The only difference that would be recorded would thus be in the labor strength of the economy which would be observed to have decreased.

Answer:

illustrates how practices that may seem natural may differ greatly across cultures.

Explanation:

Rosa is a new mother who lives in Guatemala. Like many women in her culture, she sleeps with her infant. When she learns that this is not common practice in the United States, she is shocked and feels sadness for the babies who do not get to sleep with their parents. Rosa's reaction to this cultural difference illustrates how practices that may seem natural may differ greatly across cultures.

Another example is the Scottish man dressed in his kilt, this will seem outrageous in some part of the world.
