A population of cottontail rabbit gives birth to an average of eight kids baby rabbits per litter and it's only has one predator. However an average of only two kids per litter actually lives to maturity which of these might explain this low survival rate

Answers

Answer 1

The low survival rate was due the predator activity on the baby rabbits and other struggle for survival that may be involved.

Normally the rabbit can give birth to eight kid baby rabbit per litter but in this case only two kid baby rabbit live up to maturity which means predator activity on the kid baby rabbit was high.

If carbon dioxide is needed photosynthesis and water is plentiful, which of the following is likely to occur? A. Additional water will be gained and the plant cells will become rigid. B. The stomata will open until too much water is lost. C. Water pressure is going to decease in the guard cells. D. The stomata will close until enough water is lost.

Answers

Remember, if CO2 (which is a gas) is needed, then the stomata must open up to let in air. This limits your answers to A and C. If you have plenty of water, how would too much water be lost? I think you can figure out the answer from that.Let me know if this is clear and helps or not.

A : Additional water will be gained and the plant cells will become rigid
B : The stomata will open until too much water is lost
C : Water pressure is going to decease in the guard cells
D : The stomata will close until enough water is lost

The answer D : The stomata will close until enough water is lost
