Answer:

water and land

Explanation:

I assume this is an open-ended question, so you could make an argument for lots of things, but these are the two most important ones in my opinion. The amount of freshwater on Earth is pretty small, only about 2.5%, and most of that is locked in ice. As the demand for food grows, the demand for water for crops and livestock also grows. This is in addition to the increase in water that is needed for a growing population. Climate change increases this problem because of drought. The second most important resource that will be affected is land. If we need more food, we also need space to grow crops and raise livestock. The available space is also reduced because people need places to live and we need to be able to grow trees for wood to build houses and other buildings. I argue that land and water will be the most in-demand commodities as the population continues to increase.

Given what we know about the relationships present in this ecosystem, we can confirm that the reintroduction of grey wolves, while causing the population of elk to decrease, will also permit the population of aspen trees and similar plants to increase.

<h3>Why would Aspen trees increase in population?</h3>

The Elk is one of the primary consumers of the aspen tree.

When wolves were removed from the park, their absence caused a sharp increase in the elk population.

This increase in turn caused the elks to consume much more aspen trees and reduce their availability greatly.

The reintroduction of wolves will control the elk population and allow the aspen trees to regrow.

Therefore, given the predator and prey relationships present in the park, we can confirm that with the reintroduction of wolves to the park, we can expect the reduction in elk to allow for an increase in aspen tree populations.

Therefore, it is up to the scientists to provide cold hard proof of whether this action is spreading the disease or not.
