Question

here are two types of rabbits: those that strictly eat grass and those that strictly eat berries and flowers. A drought occurs one year, and the plants have difficulty producing any extras (flowers, berries, etc.). They can only try and keep themselves green. The rabbits have had babies all year long but many are eaten by foxes or hawks. Due to the drought, many have starved to death.

What are the variations in this population?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rabbit's population will reduce drastically

Explanation:

As it is clear from the given description, that drought adversely affects the production of flower and berries and hence the population of rabbits depending on berries and flowers will be adversely affected. Therefore, there are high chances of rabbits dying because of insufficient food during drought

Also, the foxes and hawks feed on the babies of rabbit. This further reduces the population of rabbits as the new ones are killed before attaining fertility.

Overall due to both predation (by foxes and hawks) and the drought the  population will reduce drastically.
