If a snake species were introduced to an ecosystem where it had no natural predators,
what long-term effect do you predict the snakes would have on the population
dynamics of the ecosystem?
O They would compete with native snake species for resources, causing a decline in native snake
populations and possibly extinction.
O They would serve as a food source for predators of native snakes, causing an increase in native
snake populations.
O They would form mutualistic relationships with native snakes, since they would occupy the
same niche in the ecosystem.
O They would breed with native snakes, resulting in an increase of biodiversity in the ecosystem. I'm taking a quiz and I need help now
