Answer 1

Reducing low-growing plants from an area would have a negative impact on the population of tortoises, especially those with short neck extension ability. These tortoises rely on low-growing plants for food and reducing those plants would decrease their food source, potentially leading to a decrease in their population. However, it is unlikely that this would lead to their extinction. The proportion of tortoises with long neck extension ability may have a slight advantage in finding food, but it does not necessarily guarantee an increase in their population. Therefore, none of the mentioned options are accurate.

Answer 2

so whats the answer

Answer 3

Based on the information provided, it is impossible to accurately determine the impact of reducing low-growing plants from an area on the population of tortoises with short and long distance neck extension ability.
