Kate: The recent decline in numbers of the T. warblers, a North American songbird that migrates each fall to coffee plantations in South America, is due to the elimination of the dense tree coverthat formerly was a feature of most South American coffe plantation.
Scott: The explanation of the spruce budworm, the warbler's favorite prey in North America, has been dropping. this is a more likely explanation of the warbler's decline.
Which of the following must seriously calls Scott's hypothesis into quesiton?
A: The numbers of the B oriole, a sonbird that does not eat budworms but is an dependent on South America coffee plantation as is the T warbler, are declining.
C: the drop in the population of the spruce budworm is expected to be oonly temporary.
