If snakes were removed from the food web what would probably happen to the grasshopper population?
If snakes were removed from the food web, the grasshopper population would likely increase significantly. Snakes are natural predators of grasshoppers, and without their presence, the grasshoppers would face less predation pressure.

Additionally, increased grasshopper populations might lead to more competition for resources among herbivores.
