Biology
2 answers:
GuDViN [60]3 years ago

Answer:

Option D,  it has a strong influence on the ecosystem

Explanation:

Keystone species are an essential part of an ecosystem and their functions/mark cannot be replaced by any other organism. Once the keystone species is removed from an ecosystem, the ecosystem struggles to sustain  or it changes radically. A keystone species in majority of ecosystems/food web is a predator but this is not true in all ecosystems/or with all keystone species.  

For example – there was a trophic cascade when the Gray wolves in the greater Yellowstone ecosystem were removed.

The answer is D

One way to remember this is when you are building a bridge there is one piece right in the middle that keeps the whole thing from collapsing that is called the key-stone. If a keystone species goes extinct then the rest of the ecosystem will crumble around it.

Which condition of volcanic magma would mostly like cause an explosive, destructive eruption?
Irina-Kira [14]

The eruptions are caused by an accumulation of gases that press under a volcano.
The molten rock continues to generate upward pressure but can not advanced; this causes that its force increases with the passage of time, since it continues accumulating hot gases trying to come to the surface.
Finally, the surface yields and a volcanic eruption occurs.
