Keystone predators can maintain species diversity in a community if they  prey on the community's dominant species

Option B is correct.

What is meant by keystone predator?

A keystone species is usually a dominant predator whose removal allows a prey population to explode and often decreases overall diversity. other forms of keystone species are those, like coral or beavers, that significantly alter the habitat around them and thus affect large numbers of other organisms.

Are keystone species always predators?

A keystone species is usually , but not always, a predator. Just some predators can control the distribution and population of large numbers of prey species. the whole concept of keystone species was founded on research surrounding the influence of a marine predator on its environment.

Fill in each blank with the type of energy being described
Sladkaya [172]

The sun gives off _solar___energy, which enters the atmosphere. Plants absorb some of the energy  and perform photosynthesis to convert it into_chemical__energy in the form of sugars. Plants and the  animals that eat them then turn that energy into a different form of _chemical___ energy, in the form of  ATP. When plants and animals use the energy, it becomes _heat_ energy.

The energy producing process for life starts with the use of solar energy by plants in photosynthesis. Green plants takes up solar energy from the sun and uses it to manufacture sugar and oxygen gas in the presence of carbon dioxide and water. The sugar stores chemical energy.

When the food produced by plant is eaten, during cellular respiration, the ATP formed from break down of the food is used to liberate heat energy. The bond between the second phosphate element is broken down and heat energy is released from the stored chemical energy.

This gives off carbon dioxide and water as the by product.
