Answer:
D. predator population will decrease
Explanation:
If the population of prey species decreases then the competition between the predator population will increase and natural selection will act on them. So nature will select those individuals among predators who are more fit and adapted and less fit individuals will die.
So a few year after the predator population will decrease as there are not enough prey to support the large population of predators which was present when prey were abundant. Therefore the correct answer is D.

Reduction of the number of sets of chromosomes occurs during meiosis I.
During Meiosis I crossing over of genetic material occurs between chromosome pairs
Answer:
41 chromosomes
Explanation:
Cats have a dipoid chromosome number of 38, <u>so their gametes will have half that number: an haploid number of 19 chromosomes</u>.
Rabbits have a dipoid chromosome number of 44, <u>so their gametes will have an haploid number of 22 chromosomes</u>.
When a cat gamete (n=19) joins with a rabbit gamete (n=22) to form the hybrid zygote, it will have 19+22=41 chromosomes. When it undergoes mitotic division, all its somatic cells will have 41 chromosomes.
Answer:
C

Ash from the fire helps restore nutrients
Fires clear out the brush along the ground level before they reach the trees, hence clearing the way to prevent larger fires
Eucalyptus and pine only feed after a fire event when the soil is rich
Therefore the odd one out is C
Answer: existence of a particular species is completely wiped out from the planet
Explanation: Extinction means that the existence of a particular species is completely wiped out from the planet. It is an irreversible form of damage, since neither a single male and female species member is present to procreate. Endangered, on the other hand, means that a species is nearing extinction.
