If the number of herbivores increased it would cause an autotrophic population to decrease. Because herbivores feed on ONLY plants.

Answer:

The population of autotroph's would decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Herbivores feed on plants and that is what an autotroph is, but if the amount of herbivores increased, there would be more animals to eat more of the plants.
