Answer:

It will decrease the snake population and increase the grasshopper population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The snake population will decrease because the mice will start being killed by multiple animals increasing competition for the snakes. The grasshopper population will increase because less grasshoppers would be eaten by mice because there would be less mice.
