Question

Sunlight-Rose-Honeybee-Skunk-Eagle

study the food chain above. if the population of homeybees had a major increase, which of the following would most likely happen.​

Answer 1

Sunlight is the same (obvs) then roses decrease because there are more honeybees to eat them. Skunks would probably increase bc there are lots more honeybees to eat but then honeybees decrease probably. Eagles increase cos skunks increased after honeybees increased. Basically sunlight stays same, roses dercrease and the rest increase.

Answer 2

The rose population would decrease because the bees would need more food. Since the skunk has more food, it would increase and the eagle population would probably increase too because of more access to skunks. The eagle interpretation may be true unless the eagle is perceived as a scavenger. Then the population would most likely stay the same. The sun would stay the same because it is an abiotic factor in an ecosystem. your welcome fam
