Answer:
It is quiet simple the only way the offspring of two organism could be effected by any sort of mutation is if the mutation accrued during meiosis.
<span>The correct answer should be that the carnivore population would also increase. Since they eat the herbivores, if the amount of herbivores increased there would be more food for the carnivores so they wouldn't have to worry about anything and could thrive, feeding themselves without worrying for food.</span>
Speciation is not a mechanism of microevolution.
In communities where zebra mussels have invaded we observed that the population of invertebrates, zooplankton, and phytoplankton they will decrease when in open water. The population of bottom-dwelling invertebrates which are in the littoral zone will increase.
Hypothesis shows the zebra mussels will affect the fish negatively that feed on plankton in the open water but affect positively the fish which feed on invertebrates which are in the littoral zones.
The predictions by following the invasion of zebra muscles show that the number and growth rate of fish species in open water will decrease in population whereas the number and growth rate of fish species in the littoral zone will increase in population.
