In 1906, there was a small population of deer on the Kaibab Plateau. Because cows had overgrazed the food on the Kaibab Plateau,
the Forest Service decided to create a preserve on the Kaibab Plateau for the deer. In the preserve, the cows and the natural predators of the deer were removed. In 1920, the Forest Service discovered that the number of deer in the preserve was very large. By 1923, most of the deer were starving from a lack of food. Which statement best describes what happened on the Kaibab Plateau between 1906 and 1923? Overgrazing by cows caused the deer on the Kaibab Plateau to starve. The large growth and starvation of the deer population was an event of natural selection. With no natural predators to regulate the population, the deer population continued to grow. The growth of the deer population was slower than the growth of the food supply on the Plateau, causing starvation.
Answer: With no natural predators to regulate the population, the deer population continued to grow.
Explanation:
In 1906 a preserve was created for the deer. In creating this they drove both the cows as well as the deer's natural predators away. This meant that the deer population was no longer regulated by the predators hunting and eating them which led to an explosion in deer population.
The land which had been overgrazed at some point could not support this population and so the deer started starving because there simple wasn't enough food to support their population.
Electromagnetic waves are not like sound waves because they do not need molecules to travel. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel through air, solid objects and even space.
