6. Which of the following is the least likely environmental effect of the increase in deer population? A. More deer will attract other native species and increase biodiversity in the area. B. Deer will outcompete other species for resources and reduce food supplies available for other species. C. Exceeding the carrying capacity will lead to destruction of native species and reduces biodiversity. D. Destruction of native vegetation will lead to growth or spread of invasive species. 7. of the following is the least likely to happen as a result of the increase in the deer population? A. Deer will consume or destroy food crops and other vegetation planted by humans. B. All stakeholders, including local residents, scientists, park officials and business people will agree on how deer populations should be controlled. C. There will be an increase in automobile accidents from deer crossing roads. D. There will be a higher incidence of diseases, such as Lyme Disease, carried by deer ticks. 8. Which is the most likely explanation for the decline in wild animal species described in the article? A. Deer browsing reduces new plant growth and availability of habitat for other species. B. As other sources of food become more scarce, deer feed on wild animals. C. As omnivores, deer prey on wild animal species. D. Deer transmit pathogens and pests that spread disease and destruction of wild animal species. 9. Which of the following is not an anthropogenic factor that has contributed to an increase in deer populations? A. natural variation in populations of predator species B. clearing land to build houses and to plant gardens and lawns C. urban/suburban development (sprawl) D. extirpation of native predator species 10. Using the image below , which of the following best represents the population growth pattern expected as the population of deer grows, exceeds the carrying capacity of the area, and then reaches a stable replacement level? A. J curve, exponential growth B. S curve
