Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When the population of arctic foxes' main food source, lemmings, decreases, the arctic fox population would experience a density-dependent decrease. This is because as the food supply decreases, there will be more competition among the arctic foxes for the remaining food, leading to a decrease in the population size.
