Cactus was introduced to Australia and quickly spread over millions of acres of land. A parasitic moth which preyed on and killed the cactus was then introduced to slow the spread. Which of the following graph best describes the changes in population growth of the cactus? (bafora and aftar introduction of the moth)

A. 1

B. 2

C. 4

D. 5

D)4

Explanation:

The graph has to have exponential growth in the beginning, ruling out 3. Then, the paragraph states the moth was introduced to slow the spread. 1 is all over the place and inconsistent, and 2 is basically taking the cactus away. 4 is leveling out the exponential growth, so it's 4

you didn't give any options but heres what i can tell you: an inference is likely to change based on additional observations. the latter is something that you have seen or sensed using your sensory organs while the former is like a conclusion out from what you have observed.
