Question

the population of adult frogs in a wetlands ecosystem has increased to 1000 individuals, which is its carrying capacity. the frogs eat flies and other small animals, and they are prey for raccoons, snakes, and a variety of large birds. which most likely would happen if an additional 200 adult frogs immigrated to the ecosystem? the carrying capacity for frog predators in the ecosystem would increase by 200 individuals. the frog population would decrease by 200 individuals because of the frogs leaving the population. the population frogs would decrease because of limited resources, or by predation or disease. the carrying capacity for frogs in the ecosystem would increase by 200 frogs.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The ecosystem's carrying capacity for adult frogs is 1000. Adding 200 frogs exceeds this limit. Populations exceeding carrying capacity typically decrease due to limited resources, predation, or disease.

Answer:

The population of frogs would decrease because of limited resources, or by predation or disease.
