Population X and Y live in the same area. The size of population X increases over time. As a direct result, the size of population Y decreases. Which is most likely the limiting factor of population Y

The group of the options are given below:

Individuals of population X are predators

Individuals of population X are prey

Individuals of population Y caught and spread a disease.

Individuals of population Y lost their shelters after a flood

The correct answer would be -  Individuals of population X are predators.

Explanation:

The limiting factor is a factor that prevents or slow the growth of the population. In this case the population an increase of a population results in the decrease in the other population directly.

Increase in the population X results directly in the dcrease of the decrease of population Y. Such relation of the two variables in apopulation growth occurs when there is predator- prey relatioship among two organism or population. Increase in the population of predator result in decrese of the population of prey.

he movement of air through earth's or any planet's atmosphere is called wind, and the main cause of earth's winds is uneven heating by the sun. this uneven heating causes changes of atmospheric pressure, and winds blow from regions with high pressure to those with low pressure.
