Asked by sally
Ten breeding pairs of rabbits are introduced
onto an island having no natural predators
and a good supply of water and food. What
will most likely happen to the rabbit population?
1. It will decrease and then increase indeļ¬-
nitely.
2. It will die out due to an increase in the
mutation rate.
3. It will remain constant due to equal birth
and death rates.
4. It will increase exponentially until it exceeds carrying capacity.
