PLEASE HELP ASAP For the past 20 years, the population of the invasive Asian Carp in the Mississippi River has skyrocketed, while populations of native species have declined. Which of the following conclusions provides the best explanation for this phenomenon?

The carp out-competed the native species for food and space.
The food sources preferred by the carp increased.
The native species migrated to new areas, while the carp remained.
The native species contracted a virus that the carp were immune to.

the carp out competed the native species for food and space.

chromosomes carry the genetic information for organisms. also, chromatin is the thread like dna which is located in the nucleus of an organism.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
