Answer: b. An increase in the population of prey it feeds on.

Explanation:

A predator is a kind of organism which kills the other organisms so as to obtain them as food. The organism which is killed is called as prey. If the population of predators in an ecosystem increases the result for this increase is the increase in population of prey which the predator population can use as food to survive, reproduce and grow in number.

Why don't all cells demonstrate the presence of all intracellular structures?
Vinil7 [7]

All the cells don't have all of the intracellular structures because each and every cell do not need each and every intracellular structure. The plant cells have chloroplasts because they need to convert the light energy into chemical energy via the process of photosynthesis, the animal cells, however, have no such need, therefore, the animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Also, the erythrocytes do not have the cellular organelles in them which are present in the other body cells, because there is no need for the cellular organelles in them. The large vacuoles in plant cells is also a great example. The plants need the vacuoles for the metabolic processes, while most animal cells have no need for them.
