Scientists monitor the effects of a deadly parasite in a host. What trends will they most likely see? A. As the parasite population increases, the host population decreases. B. As the parasite population increases, the host population increases. C. The host population decreases only if the parasite population decreases. D. The host population will remain the same regardless of whether the parasite population increases or decreases.
I’m assuming the answer is A. As the parasite population increases, the host population decreases. Parasites often kill their host if not removed so it would make sense for that to be the answer. :)
