High population density can cause increases in competition for resources, such as food and shelter. The table shows the number of zebras living in four different regions.

A 3-column table has 4 rows. The first column has entries Region A, Region B, Region C, Region D. The second column is labeled Population of Zebras with entries 1,312, 630, 16,400, 17,800. The third column is labeled Area (kilometers squared) with entries 212, 314, 625, 902.

In which region is competition for resources most likely the greatest?


Sagot :

Answer:  Region C

=============================================================

Explanation:

Check out the screenshot below.

I formed a fourth column where we divide each population over its corresponding area. For example, region A will have a population density of roughly 1312/212 = 6.19 which means there are 6.19 zebras per square km.

The higher the population density, the more competition for resources. We see that region C has the highest density at about 26.24 zebras per square km. There are more zebras competing for food/water/shelter/etc in the same relative area compared to the other regions.
