The Arctic fox has to compete with other predators for its food sources. The main food sources for the Arctic fox are rabbits and other small rodents. What would happen if competition for food in the Arctic increased and it was difficult for the Arctic fox to find its prey? A) The Arctic fox population will decline. B) The Arctic fox population will increase. C) The Arctic fox population will remain the same. D) The Arctic fox population will increase and then decrease only slightly.

A) The Arctic fox population will decline.

Explanation:

The Arctic fox's survival is dependent on the majorly on the availability of enough rabbits and other small rodents, on which they derive nutrition from and ensures they reproduce more. Increase in interspecific competition for these same limited resources that are share with other  predators in the Artic would most likely have a negative influence on the population of the Arctic fox.

The Arctic fox population would decline as food becomes scarce due to interspecific competition. Only few individuals of the Arctic fox would be able to survive, as reproduction also would reduce.

prophase: we can observe the chromosomes to coil up and condense. they become visible. nuclear membrane and envelope disintigrate.s

metaphase: chromosomes align at the center, the metaphase plate. spindle fibers attach to centromeres of the sister chromatids. they meet at kinetochores.

anaphase: sister chromatids are pulled towards each opposing centromere, set on different poles.

telophase: chromosomes are now clustered up only on either sides of the cell. nuclear membranes reform, and a new cell wall forms along the cell plate. this will lead to cytokinesis, the process that divides the cell membrane and forms the cell wall.
