I. What evolutionary advantages might arise from not needing free water for fertilization?.

if the hares very faster than they are now, and thus the lynx's hunting success rate drops because it will be harder to catch them, the rate that will change will be the pray-rate. the pray-rate will change because more hares will be able to survive, thus more individuals for reproduction, so the end result will be increasing population of hares.

the predator-rate will remain pretty much the same because there will be more than enough pray, but the hunting success rate is stagnant.

the sun creates it's own light, also gives light and life to bunch of stuff like plants,animals,humans etc.photosyntesis is the process of making food which needs sun,water,nutrients etc.
