Explain why the cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia.

kakasveta [241]3 years ago
7 0
The cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia because:
-The greyback beetle it was supposed to be eating fed at the top of the sugarcane stalks (which were 6-8 meters in height). Cane toads cannot fly or climb and therefore couldnt feed on the beetles.
-The beetles were out during the daytime, and cane toads feed at night.
-The two species are not seasonally compatible (aren't in the same place at the same time of year).
-The toads needed moist conditions to survive, and so moved away from where they were supposed to be.
-The cane toad eats many native species and often out-competes native species for food and breeding sites, leading to the decline of natives.
-Breeding habits made the cane toads a very invasive species.

The correct answer is that porous minerals weather faster.

The process of weathering alter and disintegrates the rocks and minerals closer to or at the surface of the Earth. This process shapes the Earth's surface. The three kinds of weathering comprise biological, mechanical, and chemical. Weathering dissociates apart and erodes rocks and minerals.  

The rocks are the symbols of strength and durability. The rocks are usually resilient to weathering. This confrontation relies on the mineral composition and mineral porosity. The physically soft or porous minerals are easily crushed and dissociated, while in case of harder minerals it is quite tough.
