An earthquake causes a one 100 mile square area to be fractured into four different geographical areas. Two of the areas have a

river running through them, the other two have ponds. Which of the following is a likely scenario based on the new geography? Over time, the areas with the rivers will have less animals than the areas with the ponds. Within a couple years, the areas with the rivers will have many more plants than the areas with the ponds. Animals that need access to large quantities of salt water will be found in the area with the ponds. Flying animals will be able to cross back and forth between the two areas easily.

If it is a multiple answer question, then "The areas with the rivers will have the most plants" and " The areas with ponds will have more animals" would be your best answers. If it is a single answer question, then it would be best to go with the answer with 'The areas with the rivers will have more plant life",. The reason being, is that when there is a lot of water flow, there is more plant life around.

Answer:

Within a couple years, the areas with the rivers will have many more plants than the areas with the ponds.

Explanation:

The help of running water on the area will increase and sustain the new wildlife that the area will start to have, as a risponse to the new geographic area, the ponds unless they have a way to re-fill wouldn´t be of much help for the animals and plants around them, so within a couple of years the areas with the rivers will have many more plants than the areas with the ponds.
