select all the correct answers. in grasslands, goats are prey for both foxes and tigers. if the population of goats decreases because of natural causes, what are three possible consequences? there will be interspecific competition between foxes and tigers. there will be intraspecific competition between foxes and tigers. the energy received at the trophic level of carnivores will be less than the usual amount. the energy received at the trophic level of carnivores will be more than the usual amount. there will be decreased biomass at the trophic level of carnivores.
Answer
Answer:
- A. There will be interspecific competition between foxes and tigers.
- C. The energy received at the trophic level of carnivores will be less than the usual amount.
- E. There will be decreased biomass at the trophic level of carnivores.
Brief Explanations:
Interspecific competition occurs between different species (foxes and tigers) for the same prey (goats). With fewer goats, less energy is available for carnivores, reducing energy intake and biomass at their trophic level.
