B) Deforestation

The area they are living in becomes smaller and they are forced to fight for resources, enter urban settings, and as the forest declines they are more likely to encounter predators.

Answer:

Deforestation

Explanation:

  • Limiting factors are the factors of an environment that influence the survival of an organism by being the least in number and hence are crucial in determining how to long the organism will be able to survive in the given environment.
  • Since in the given question it has been stated that the raccoons are omnivores that prefer woody areas and fall prey to lions, gray wolves and coyotes then out of all the given options deforestation would serve as a limiting factor because deforestation would lead to a loss of their habitat as they prefer woody areas and also would make them more vulnerable to fall prey to their predators.
  • Hence, deforestation is a limiting factor.

How is crude oil brought to the surface
natta225 [31]
In some places, especially some new wells that have just been drilled,
the oil is under pressure, and it brings itself to the surface as soon as
you drill a 'pipe' for it to rise through.

In most oil wells, there's a pump bobbing up and down day and night,
pumping the oil up out of the well.

When the well is so old that even a pump isn't very effective, water is
often forced down the well under pressure, and the water forces the
oil back up through the pipe.
