Why should humans be concerned about a decline in the number of cricket frogs? ​
dangina [55]

Answer:Conservation biologists, philosophers, environmental ethicists, and others offer several key reasons to conserve biodiversity. One argument is that organisms have direct economic value for humans. We use plants and animals for medicines, food, clothes, building materials, recreation, and other luxuries and necessities. But what if an organism that is of no use to us for food or hides is screened for useful medicinal compounds and found to have none? Do we sanction its extermination? Why must a plant or animal be of direct economic benefit to humans to have worth? Economic value alone is not the only reason to preserve biodiversity.

Another reason often given…to conserve biodiversity is that organisms, as components of ecosystems, provide services, and their interactions with other organisms contribute to the overall healthy functioning of ecosystems… On a practical level, biologists want to know just how much the loss of a few species will reduce the quality of services within a specific ecosystem. Two schools of thought prevail.

When has ocean acidification shown to widespread?
lara31 [8.8K]
It's shown to widespread in areas where there's a high amount of CO2 in the air, possibly near factories or any buildings that release emissions and have a significant carbon footprint.
Remember, ocean acidification is a large rise of the PH level in water, as it becomes more of an acid as opposed to a base. Carbon dioxide traps heat, and it's possible that the heat contributes to the acidification, as well. The fact that Co2 traps heat is the sole reason for global warming.
Hopefully this helped!
