Question

If the hawk were to removed from the food chain, which consumer would increase in population

Answer 1

Answer:

Everything from the hawk's diet

Explanation:

Mice, rats, shrews, without their main predator, the ecosystem would become unbalanced by the increasing overpopulation of rodents and most likely small snakes that are also on hawks' diet. Another consumer would probably be other animals that eat the hawks' diet. Without a competing consumer, the, let's say snake, population would grow larger.
