Dutch elm disease is a disease that affects elm trees and is caused by a fungal species that infects the vascular systems of the

tree. Over time, the fungus will spread through the vascular tissue and eventually result in a complete blockage that prohibits water and nutrient transport in the tree.
Dutch elm disease is most commonly spread by elm bark beetles that can carry fungal spores on their body. When an infected beetle lands on a healthy elm tree to feed, the tree can become infected by the spores. As beetles move from tree to tree, more of the elm population can become infected.

Suppose a forested area has many tree species, including elms. Elm bark beetles carrying the fungus that causes Dutch elm disease are accidentally introduced into the area by humans. The elm bark beetle population flourishes because of a lack of natural predators.

What will most likely happen over time as the elm bark beetle population grows?

<span>The correct answer is A, B and D. Biogeochemical cycles are central to the ecology of earth system. They make the essentail elements accessible and available for the organisms, and maintain their levels, so that the ecology is ot disrupted. The elements move through abiotic and biotic factors, in these cycles, and a state of equilibrium is maintained n the ecosystem. The carbon dioxide levels are responsible fr the temperature of the earth. If Carbon cycles would not have existed, then there would have been a disruption in maintaining the global temperature. Biogeochemical cycles basically continuously recycles the essential materials, for sustaining the life-forms.</span>

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Changes in the environment may leave individuals less well adapted to compete successfully for resources such as food, water and mates. Sometimes an entire species may become unable to compete successfully and reproduce. These problems can lead to extinction.
