The shark population will change eventually because the more sharks the more food they need to eat and if the sharks are increasing there eating all the clams and shellfish. The data shows that recently the shark population increased. How will the increase in the shark population affect the other populations? Be sure to explain whether the sea otter population, the sea star population, and the clam population will change, and why?
(pls add a nice long explanation without any hard words, and whoever answers first will get a brainliest, thanks, and a 5 star review!!!) Pls hurry! I am counting on ya'll!

Answer:Increase in sharks, decrease in otters, increase in clams, increase in sea stars.Explanation:As the shark population increases, they will prey on more otters. The otters consume clams, which means with fewer otters the clams will be able to increase. The sea stars will have more clams to prey on, so they will also increase.

The increase in sharks population will have an effect on the population of sea otters, sea star and clam. All these three animals depend on the diet on which the sharks eat. More sharks then more food will be eaten and less food for these three animals. So when there is less food to eat many of these three animal population dies and soon the food chain will fall apart. For example, less population of river otter, crocodiles won’t have much food to eat. As you can see increase in shark population can sort of break the food chain.
