The following graph depicts changes in two populations (A and B) of herbivores in grassy field. A possible reason for these changes is that
1. both plant populations in this habitat decreased
2. population-B competed more successfully for food than population-A
3. population-A produced more offspring than population-B
4. population-A consumed the members of population-B
