If the data below were put into a bar graph, which animal would have the lowest bar on the bar graph?

Number of Individuals in a Rocky Mountain Forest
\begin{tabular}{|l|r|}
\hline \multicolumn{1}{|c|}{ Organism } & Population \\
\hline Mountain lions & 150 \\
\hline Bobcats & 300 \\
\hline Coyotes & 10,000 \\
\hline Deer & 25,000 \\
\hline \hline
\end{tabular}

A. Mountain lions
B. Bobcats
C. Coyotes
D. Deer



Answer :

To determine which animal would have the lowest bar on a bar graph representing the number of individuals in a Rocky Mountain Forest, we need to find the organism with the smallest population.

Here are the given populations for each organism:

- Mountain lions: 150
- Bobcats: 300
- Coyotes: 10,000
- Deer: 25,000

We compare these population counts:

1. Mountain lions have a population of 150.
2. Bobcats have a population of 300.
3. Coyotes have a population of 10,000.
4. Deer have a population of 25,000.

By examining these numbers, we can see that Mountain lions have the smallest population, which is 150.

Therefore, if this data were put into a bar graph, Mountain lions would have the lowest bar on the bar graph.
