Recently the tiger population has increased. What will likely happen to the worm population? * A: increase. The larger tiger population will lead to fewer wild pigs. The smaller wild pig population will need fewer energy storage molecules to reproduce, so they will eat fewer worms.

b: increase. An increase in the size of any population leads to an increase in the sizes of all other populations in an ecosystem.

c: stay the same. Tigers do not eat worms, so the number of births and deaths in the worm population will stay the same.

d: decrease. The larger tiger population will leave fewer energy storage molecules available in the ecosystem for the worm population.
