The right answer is Uranium (especially U-235).

Nuclear fission is the phenomenon by which a heavy atomic nucleus (that is, formed of a large number of nucleons such as uranium, plutonium, etc.) is split into two or more lighter nuclides.

This nuclear reaction is accompanied by the emission of neutrons (generally two or three) and a very important energy release (≈ 200 MeV (megaelectronvolt) per fissioned atom, compared to the energies of the chemical reactions which are the order of the eV per atom or molecule reacting).

In this desert food web, what would be the effect of increasing the biodiversity of the plant and animal life?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Introducing evasive species to a food web can damage the ecosystem as the existing life depends on each other. Having a new organism come in and take extra food harms the organisms that eat that food, and in turn if there is nothing left from (lets say the carnivores), the producers will have very little nutrients to absorb from the soil. Once the producers die, the herbivores will die because they have no food. Then the chain of death will continue till there's nothing left.
