Answer:

Lack of mice

Explanation:

If the grasshopper where to go extinct the mice population would decrease. Which would lead to it being harder for snakes to find food or they would begin to rely on a different food source. But the hawks would be able to find less snakes but would overall be fine.

Answer:

This can actually cause a major problem if the number of grasshoppers were to increase out of control. They eat plants and the number of plants,which are the basis of the food chain, could severely decrease which would impact all of the levels operating above this trophic level.

The correct option is this: HAS THE CLAIM BEEN TESTED NUMEROUS TIMES BY MORE THAN ONE SCIENTISTS.
For a claim to be accepted has been valid in the science world, it must have been tested several times by many scientists who obtain the same results. Having a uniform result about a phenomenon is usually considered an important factor when examining the validity of a claim.

If you could measure the resting metabolic rate of the following animals, which would most likely have the lowest mass-specific

yawa3891 [41]

The horse and mouse are endotherms among them rat will have high mass-specific metabolic rate.

The shark and fish are endotherms among them fish will have high mass-specific metabolic rate.

Explanation:

The endotherm (heat requires in them to maintain internal temperature of the body) organism have high metabolic rates to maintain homeostasis, this requires the large amount of energy. Smaller animals have the greater surface area to volume ratio, hence more heat loss and higher metabolism. In larger animals body volume increases, surface area increase is also very slow, hence less heat loss and lower Metabolic rate. Smaller animals exchange oxygen to tissues at a high rate.

Same goes with ectotherms the larger the animal the smaller is the metabolic rate. During winters their activity slows down as they cannot adjust with the temperature of the surrounding.

However metabolic rates of ectotherm and endotherm cannot be compared.
