Question

4. One of the most common predation relationships that can be seen in the Florida Everglades is between the Florida

Panther and the White Tailed Deer. Since the Florida Panther is an endangered species, what would happen to the
deer population as the panther population decreases in size?
A. The deer population would decrease.
B. The deer population would not be affected.
C. The deer population would increase indefinitely.
D. The deer population would increase and then level off.

Answer 1

D

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be D because it would increse yes in population because the panthers are decreasing and attacking less. But, it would still level off because there are other predators who can kill the white tailed deer. Also the panther who is endangered could still atack even though theres just a few left that does not affect them from attacking. So it would increase but it would still level off.
