Answer:

Invasive plants tend to deplete soil health in grasslands by reducing biodiversity and eliminating native species. The shift towards an invasive plant monoculture is accomplished through a variety of strategies including competition for soil moisture, changing soil chemistry, shading and space.

An extreme disturbance happens in an ecosystem. How does an ecosystem change as succession happens after this disturbance?

ddd [48]

Answer:

There is less biodiversity in the ecosystem.

Explanation:

Since the barren ground doesn't provide suitable living conditions for most of the living organisms, the ones that need the lest resources to survive create the primary succession, usually the mosses and lichens. The organisms of the primary succession provide biomass, so the ground is mixing with it, thus new soil is forming.

Some people argue that evolution, which is generally associated with progressive increases in the

yKpoI14uk [10]

This argument would not be valid because it fails to take into account the mechanisms through which evolution occurs and misunderstands the second law of thermodynamics.

The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system must always increase. The argument stating that this law disproves evolution given that evolution can be considered as a decrease in entropy, fails to realize that the second law states that the total entropy must increase, this does not mean that entropy cannot decrease at one point, to then increase more so at another.

The other aspect of evolution that this argument fails to account for is that evolution is a chaotic process. Evolution, though having a final product that may be considered as increasing in organization, is at heart a chaotic process caused by random mutations and the fragile process of natural selection. Therefore, rather than disprove it, the second law of thermodynamics is actually the driving force behind continued evolution.
