The right option is; C. The keystone species is critical to maintaining the stability of an ecosystem, and changes in its population indicate changes in ecosystem health.

Keystone species are the species such as jaguar that has a superfluous impact on its environment relative to its population. The keystone species are important for the general function and structure of an ecosystem and they have an influence on the composition (in terms of plants and animals) of an ecosystem. It is useful for an ecologist to identify the keystone species in an ecosystem because the keystone species is important to maintaining the stability of an ecosystem, and any changes in the keystone species population shows that there is changes in ecosystem health.

Why do scientists consider vestigial structures evidence for evolution?
ANTONII [103]

Vestigial structures are taken as an example of evolution because they give us an indication of structures that, due to the adaptation to the environment, disappeared.

At the end of the vertebral column, we have the coccyx as an example of this.  Its believed that it could have formed a tail and currently, is only a small bone without any specific function, even some individuals are born without it.

How does the gravitational force of the moon affect Earth? (1 point)
padilas [110]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

High and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.
