 Q 50. A government campaign was conducted
in an agricultural area where sparrow population
was exterminated as these birds were known to eat
grains and decrease crop yield. However, in the
months that followed, grain production was
severely reduced leading to famines in that area.

The given graph traces the population changes of

one more species in that area after campaign.
Which of the following best explains this?

A. There was overgrowth of crops due to

reduced sparrow population causing the crops to
compete for available resources thereby leading to
crop failure.
B. The crash in sparrow population caused the
population of locusts (which sparrows prey upon)
to spike, which in turn wiped out available crops in
field.
C. The increase in the population of locust is
not related with the decrease in the population of
sparrow.
D. None of these
