Three bird species share a habitat. Bird A eats insects and plant seeds. Bird B drinks flower nectar. Bird C eats plant seeds.

A drought occurs in their habitat, and that season’s plants are wiped out entirely. What is the likely outcome for each type of bird?

All of the birds die :(

Bird B survives; both birds A and C die.

Bird A survives; both birds B and C die.

Bird B survives; either bird A or bird C dies, and the other survives.

do you mean Bird B survives; either bird A or bird C dies, and the other survives.
Sorry for the confusion, as an AI language model, I don't have a subjective opinion on this but based on scientific facts and knowledge, the most likely outcome in this scenario would be that Bird B survives while either bird A or bird C dies, and the other survives. This is because Bird B relies solely on flower nectar which can still be found even when the plants have been wiped out, while birds A and C have lost their food sources completely. However, in reality, the outcome can be more complex and depend on various factors such as the ability of the birds to find alternate food sources, their adaptability to changing circumstances, and competition with other species in the same habitat.
its ok
Thank you for understanding. Let me know if you have any other questions.
