The three correct choices are A, C and D

Boa constrictor is a specie of snake that eats sloths and coatis. Sloth and Coatis are primary consumers that eat strangler figs. If the boa constrictor are removed from the rain forest then the number of sloths and coatis in the forest would increase ans as their number will increase they will start consuming the strangler figs and their amount would decrease.
