Question
read the passage. then answer the question below.
the pantanal wetlands expand across
western brazil, bolivia, and paraguay.
during the rainy season, almost all of
the pantanal is underwater. the water
moves slowly through the dense
plants that grow throughout the
wetlands.
the pantanal is home to the capybara,
the largest rodent species in the
world. capybaras spend so much time
in the water that they are considered
semiaquatic. their partially webbed
toes help them to swim. capybaras
eat water plants such as the water
hyacinth.
in the pantanal wetlands, the capybaras make up which of the following? select all that apply.
part of an ecosystem
part of a community
a population
A population is a group of the same species. Capybaras are one species, so they make up a population. An ecosystem includes all living and non - living things. Since the question is about capybaras only (not all living and non - living), it's not an ecosystem. A community is multiple species. Here only capybaras (one species) are considered, so not a community.
