Passage

People traveling to an island accidentally introduced mice into an ecosystem that previously had no mice. The population of mice quickly grew out of control. It started harming populations of native plants and birds. Scientists offered two solutions. One was to introduce cats to the island. The cats could hunt and eat the mice. The other suggestion was to introduce a disease that could infect the mice and reduce their population.

Answer:

Cat.

Explanation:

Introduction of cat can control the population of mice on the island more effectively as compared to the introduction of disease because the introduction of disease can cause damage to other population of that environment that adversely affected the ecosystem. Cat feeds on mice that act as a controlling agent in this ecosystem that will leads to decrease as well as controls the population from increasing in order to cause damage to the environment.
