Question
The number of malaria patients in a village increased tremendously when large number of frogs were exported from the village. What could be the cause for it?
Solution
As frogs were exported from the village, the mosquito population increased, because there were no frogs to consume the mosquitoes. Hence, the increased number of mosquitoes led to an increase in the number of malaria patients.
