  • Q6

    What is most likely to happen when a species of fish is introduced in a river?

    The introduced fish becomes the native fish in the river.

    The number of introduced fish in the river will not survive.

    The population of introduced fish increases rapidly.

    The population of native fish decreases because they have a new competitor to the resources.

  • Q7

    The population size of rats in the field increased and exceeded its carrying capacity. What is the impact of this on the ecosystem?

    Increase in the number of preys

    Increase in the carrying capacity of an ecosystem

    Stable competition among the rats

    Scarcity of resources

  • Q8

    Why does population growth decline when population size reaches the carrying capacity of the ecosystem?

    Birth rate decreases due to climate change.

    Organisms with a high population are easy to be found by predators.

    An ecosystem has the factors that limit population growth.

    Death rate increases due to scarcity of resources.

  • Q9

    What is the possible impact of the declining number of native trees in the forest ecosystem?

    Other plants will have more food.

    Increase the resiliency of the forest.

    Decrease in the shelter of native birds and other animals.

    Other organisms depending on native trees will look for other alternatives in the forest.
