Question

If a single plant species is removed from a food web,

• A. An animal species will fill the unoccupied niche
• B. Other plants will produce enough food for herbivores
• C. Dependent herbivores will have to find new food sources
• D. Carnivores will be affected by the loss

Answer 1

The correct option is C Dependent herbivores will have to find new food sources

Herbivores are primary consumers, they mainly depend on plants for their needs. If a plant species is removed, then the herbivores dependent on that specific species have to find new or other sources.
