Question

6. Predict the long-term effects of these limiting factors on the cricket frog population: If predators continue to increase, then the cricket frog population will _________. If pollution continues to increase, then the cricket frog population will _________. If food sources continue to decrease, then the cricket frog population will _________.

Answer 1

Answer:

decrease

Increase

Increase

Explanation:

1. When the predators population is increased, there will be high risk to the cricket frog from these predators as they may start attacking them rigorously and ultimately lead to a sharp decline in their population.

2. Pollution is a favorable factor that causes cricket frogs to flourish and increase in number. Thus the higher the pollution level, the higher will be the population of cricket frog

3. Food sources will reduce the competition with in the cricket frog species and hence there population will increase.

Answer 2

Predict the long-term effects of these limiting factors on the cricket frog population: If predators continue to increase, then the cricket frog population will deacrease. If pollution continues to increase, then the cricket frog population will increase. If food sources continue to decrease, then the cricket frog population will deacrease.
