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.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

This is the answer because I have tested it and got it correct. As oxygen-rich (and carbon dioxide-poor) blood travels by a cell the oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane to the area of lower concentration inside the cell. It can do this easily because the oxygen molecule (O2) is very small and has no charge or polarity. The oxygen is used up rapidly by mitochondria.
