Question

which changes would most likely limit the growth of a plant - eating animal population? select four options. a harmful plant disease spreads through the area. a spring freeze kills many plants. a harmful animal disease spreads among the population. the number of predators increases. steady rainfall increases the number of plants.

Explanation:

A spring freeze killing many plants reduces the food - source for plant - eating animals. A harmful animal disease spreading among the population can directly decrease the number of plant - eating animals. An increase in the number of predators of plant - eating animals will lead to fewer of these animals. A harmful plant disease spreading through the area can reduce the food available for plant - eating animals. Steady rainfall increasing the number of plants provides more food, which would not limit the population.

Answer:

A spring freeze kills many plants.
A harmful animal disease spreads among the population.
The number of predators increases.
A harmful plant disease spreads through the area.
