The gram-positive bacterium having low G+C content contaminating the unpasteurized milk is Listeria monocytogenes. This bacterium can be found in the dairy products. When an individual is infected it can cause mild infections, but when it infects a pregnant female, it is capable of causing serious harm to the health of the woman as well as the fetus. In most cases, it may cause stillbirth or abortion.

Hence, the answer is 'Listeria monocytogenes'.

Answer:

coatis would increase

sloths would increase

fruit bats would increase

Explanation:

The boa constrictor in this food chain is the top predator, thus it is on the top of the food chain. It preys on several of the animals on this list, such as the coati, sloth, and fruit bats, so it is regulating their numbers. If the boa constrictor is removed from the ecosystem, the ecosystem will lose its predator, so the animals on which the boa constrictor preyed upon will have no threat, thus will experience rapid increase in their numbers. The coatis, sloths, and fruit bats, all will be predator free in this scenario, so they will all experience increase in their population, which in turn will have big effect on all other species in the ecosystem.
