No, rabbits do not typically inbreed to maintain their population size. Inbreeding can lead to genetic problems and health issues in the offspring. Instead, rabbits usually reproduce with unrelated individuals to ensure genetic diversity and healthier offspring.

Which would you expect to have the greatest biomass a population of rabbits or a population of foxes living in the same ecosystem?

How does the predator-prey relationship between lynx and rabbits benefit each species?

For the lynx, the answer is obvious. It gets fed. For the rabbit, its not so obvious. It comes down to survival of the fittest. Rabbits reproduce quite quickly. The lynx actually helps the species by eating the slower, sicker, older rabbits first. This allows stronger genetics to stay in the rabbits gene pool.

What type of population growth effect is a flood that washes away many rabbits of population?

A flood that washes away many rabbits exemplifies a density-dependent effect on population growth. This type of effect occurs when the impact on the population is related to its density; as the rabbit population increases, resources become scarcer, making them more vulnerable to environmental stresses like flooding. The flood leads to a sudden decline in population size, demonstrating a natural check on population growth.
