You are presented with the question "What can occur in animals after a fire?" and the following answer choices: 
- the population rises
 - Contaminated wounds
 - the population grows rapidly
 - the population fights the fire
 - recovery time from fatigue
 - the bottleneck effect
 - Temperature changing
 - Dehydration

Now knowing that bottleneck effect occurs when a population suddenly gets much smaller and fire usually causes temporary declines in populations, choose the best answer.
