Answer 1

The answers are.

A. The moose would be more able to avoid predators.

C. The moose would be more able to chase and catch prey.

Explanation:

• This moose population can use their speed to protect themself from the predators, but only protecting themself from predators won’t help them for their survival. They need food to live. Speed will help them to chase and catch the pray also.

• Since the population of moose in the Yellowstone National Park is less for them, it is very difficult to protect their territory by using their speed.

• They can use their speed to chase their prey. Maybe while chasing they ended up facing their predators, but they can use their speed to escape from them. Later, this will help them to make offspring also.

• Moose will be able to protect their offspring by running, but they should give food to the offspring also to survive.
