In a marine ecosystem, starfish prey upon the common mussel. common mussels feed upon plankton. what is most likely to happen if the number of starfish is increased?

The answer is;

The numbers of mussels would reduce

Planktons population would increase.

This is a phenomenon common in food chains where a reduction in predator population increases the prey population and vice versa.  This is because the species population in a food chain/food web are interlinked and source energy from one another directly or indirectly.

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.

i think the answer is g1

hope i
