Answer the question about the food web shown below.
what will most likely happen if the population of beetles drops suddenly?

C. Coatis will eat more figs.

Explanation:

A food chain is a sequence of distribution of energy in the form of food. In a food chain one organism is consumed by another organism. A food web forms when two or more food chains are interlinked.

According to the given food web, the strangler fig is eaten by the beetles and coatis. If the population of beetles declines the competition for the same source of food that is strangler fig will reduce between the two species of beetles and coatis. Hence, coatis will eat more figs if the population of beetle decline or drop.
