In a forest, gazelles were the main source of food for cheetahs. the gazelles depended on grasses and shrubs for their food. a mysterious disease quickly spread among the cheetahs, killing many of them. what impact would the decline of the cheetah population have on resource availability? because the number of cheetahs declined, the population of gazelles will most likely this situation, in turn, will lead to increased between the gazelles and other herbivorous animals that eat the same food as gazelles. first blank- decrease, increase, stay the same second blank- competition, predation, sharing

Turtle hatchling survivorship rate is low in many turtle species due to predation. amanda researched the predatory rate on a species of turtle eggs in the red river. the eggs were harvested from trapped turtles and the egg's cloaca film (reproductive discharge) was either washed off or left on once gathered. research suggests that predators use the female's cloaca scent to locate the eggs. the eggs were only handled when wearing gloves and then reburied along islands where the turtles were trapped. the nests were monitored by cameras and manually on foot and data on nest predation were recorded. a. based on the experimental design, what is the dependent variable? b. based on the experimental design, what is the independent variable? c. based on the experimental design, what is the control?
