Consider the following food chain: grass kangaroo dingo If all grass died off, predict the effect on the number of dingoes a) The number of dingoes would increase because the kangaroos would have no food. b) The number of dingoes would increase because they will breed more. c) The number of dingoes would decrease because the kangaroos would die off and the dingoes would have less to eat. d) There would be no change because dingoes do not eat grass. 13) In this food web, organisms are represented by the numbers 1 to 7.
