If a disease killed all the seagulls what effect would this have on the food web?

Answer and explanation: it would mean that there would be an increase of fish which is what seaguls eat but a decrease of, for example, leopard seals because if there aren't enough seagulls the leopard seals would die of starvation which would then again decrease another animal species because there aren't enough leopard seals. This would then repeat itself again and again.

Answer:

if the disease kills all the seaguells then it will affect the food chain negativleyy because the population of the species that would eat them (predator) will decrease dramatically and the fish ( what the seaguells eat ) there peopulation will increase dramatically because they are not being eaten .

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps , sorry middle school was a long time ago for me : )
