The graph shows the rabbit population in South Australia over time. It also shows the measures that were used to control the size of the population and prevent the population from increasing too much. European rabbits were introduced into Australia in the 18th century and are considered an invasive species. Without the normal environmental limiting factors, the rabbit population grew exponentially with a higher carrying capacity than other native mammals.

Through the 20th century, humans have used diseases or parasites to reduce the rabbit population in Australia. Myxomatosis and rabbit hemmorrhagic disease (RDH) are both diseases that kill rabbits. Rabbit fleas are a parasite that feeds off of the rabbits blood, causing the rabbits to be sick and not healthy enough to reproduce. This graph shows the effects of all three methods on the rabbit population.

Which of the diseases or parasites had the greatest effect on the rabbit population?

a
All methods were equally as effective at reducing the number of rabbits in the population
b
The introduction of RHD had the greatest effect on the rabbit population, and afterwards, the rabbit population did not fully recover.
c
The introduction of rabbit fleas had the greatest effect on the rabbit population, and afterwards, the rabbit population experienced exponential growth
d
The introduction of myxomatosis had the greatest effect on the rabbit population, and afterwards, the rabbit population did not fully recover.

Me plz he did not infringe upon the policy making powers that he felt the constitution gave congress. but the determination of foreign policy became preponderantly a presidential concern. when the french revolution led to a major war between france and england, washington refused to accept entirely the recommendations of either his secretary of state thomas jefferson, who was pro-french, or his secretary of the treasury alexander hamilton, who was pro-british. rather, he insisted upon a neutral course until the united states could grow stronger. which provides the best objective summary of this excerpt? president washington made a good choice when he decided not to accept the recommendations of his advisors and instead insisted that the united states stay neutral during the war between france and england as president, washington believed that the united states should remain neutral in foreign policy even though he had advisors who recommended that he take sides during the war between france and england. washington did not make policy decisions during his presidency because he did not want to interfere with the policy-making powers that the constitution gave congress. washington refused to accept entirely the recommendations of either his secretary of state thomas jefferson, who was pro-french, or his secretary of the treasury alexander hamilton, who was pro-britis
