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.

Radda [10]

Answer:increase; increase

Explanation:

They mostly increase in both cases because when one is reaching for their cellphone or when they are dialing it , they have to take their eyes off the road for a moment .

When driving, a moment of taking your eyes of the road can be as dangerous as trying to drive blind for a second .

Teenagers usually drives in groups which means as they look for their phones they are also chatting with their friends in the car which adds even more to this destruction.

The lack of driving experience also plays a huge role in these incidents.

PLEASE HELP 25 POINTS <br><br> what is the purpose of the primary source document?
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The purpose of a primary source document is a way to promote a deeper understanding. A primary source is a source that is acquired first-hand such as an interview, diary or autobiography, so a source that consists of original material, such as an interview.

Explanation:

Primary sources help students relate in a personal way to events of the past and promote a deeper understanding of history as a series of human events. Because primary sources are incomplete snippets of history, each one represents a mystery that students can only explore further by finding new pieces of evidence.
