Populations

Question 2 • Science 7 B (M12 25/26 S2)

One breezy spring, many rabbits are born in a forest. During the warm summer, several wolves move to the forest and many plant-eating birds fly away.Which is a limiting factor that would most likely decrease the rabbit population?

Answer
A
breezy spring weather
B
warm summer weather
C
wolves moving to the area
D
birds leaving the area

Explanation

Wolves hunt rabbits, so their arrival increases predation and can reduce the rabbit population. Breezy spring and warm summer weather are not described as harmful to rabbits, and birds leaving would reduce competition for plants rather than directly threaten rabbits. The limiting factor most likely to decrease the rabbit population is wolves moving to the area.
