The apoplast in plant tissues consists of Group of answer choices (A) cell walls, extracellular spaces, and xylem vessels; (B) cell walls, extracellular spaces, and plasmodesmata; (C) xylem vessels, plasmodesmata, and extracellular spaces (D) xylem vessels, sieve tubes, and extracellular spaces; (E) cell walls, plasma membrane, and cytosol

The apoplast is one of three methods of radial transport of water and solutes in plant tissues. The apoplast consists of all of the interstices of cell walls and dead cells of the xylem. Water and solutes pass through this channel to reach the organs without penetrating cells.

Explanation:

answer: decrease

a limiting factor is the one which decrease the abundance, distribution and causes extinction of the population of species in a ecosystem. here, predators including hawks, owls and snakes are the limiting factor for the population of mexican free tailed bat.   although bats are nocturnal animals as they forge for food at night these predators also may remain active during night which can decrease the population of the mexican free-tailed bats. also, these bats eat only one type of insects that are moths. the food can also be a limiting factor as all 400 members are dependent upon same type of food needs that are moths. the decrease in the moth population can cause decrease in population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.

therefore, the scenarios will most likely to decrease the population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.
