Question

A population of 120 rabbits lives in a prairie ecosystem. Which of these might prevent this population from growing any larger?

Answer 1

 The prairie would become overpopulated and there would be no more food for the rabbits and they would eventually die. 

Answer 2

Your answer will be C, a disease with a high mortality rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many factors that can limit the size of a plant or animal population. Disease can often prevent a population from growing beyond a certain point. Large plant or animal populations can be particularly at risk for widespread and often devastating diseases.
