Saguaro kangaroo rats generally leave watering holes, where food and water are abundant, during the day, while Sonoran kangaroo rats remain near these same watering holes and continue foraging throughout the day Although Sonoran kailgaroo rats have larger and more frequent litters, they are generally outnumbered by the Saguaro kangaroo rat.
Which of the following, if true, would best resolve the apparent paradox described above?
A. Several species of successful rodents also leave the streams and watering holes during the day
B. The Saguaro kangaroo rat matures much more slowly than the Sonoran kangaroo rat because of its relatively limited food supply.
C. Many of the predators of kangaroo rats, such as falcons and rattlesnakes, are only active around streams during the day.
D. Saguaro kangaroo rats are more sensitive to sunlight than are Sonoran kangaroo rats.
E. Sonoran kangaroo rats are reproductive to a greater age than are Saguaro kangaroo rats.

We need a reason to know why even after having larger and more frequent litters, Sonoran rats are less in number.
Which of the following, if true, would best resolve the apparent paradox described above?
A. Several species of successful rodents also leave the streams and watering holes during the day
Irrelevant
B. The Saguaro kangaroo rat matures much more slowly than the Sonoran kangaroo rat because of its relatively limited food supply.
This is saying exactly opposite of what we want to solve for. It is saying a reason why saguaro rat mature slowly
C. Many of the predators of kangaroo rats, such as falcons and rattlesnakes, are only active around streams during the day.
This explanins the paradox. During day predators come, since only Sonoran are near watering holes, which is why they get preyed and eater more thus lowering there count even though they reproduce more
D. Saguaro kangaroo rats are more sensitive to sunlight than are Sonoran kangaroo rats.
Irrelevant. Sensitive stand alone cannot explain the paradox
E. Sonoran kangaroo rats are reproductive to a greater age than are Saguaro kangaroo rats.
Same as B, Incorrect
