<span>A mantle tuft underlies Iceland, of which the hotspot is believed to be the surface articulation. This upgrades the volcanism as of now caused by plate partition, both at the focal point of the island and at the Reykjanes edge toward the southwest of Iceland's principle volcanic zone.

borishaifa [10]

Explanation:

Animal indicator list is a barometer to check how a particular ecosystem is affecting the lives of particular animals. The indicator measures  stress or behavior in the ecosystem to know whether to protect  the specie or allow them undisturbed

This is to avoid or reduce to barest minimum incidences of extinction of such specie in the ecosystem.

The grizzly sudden reduction in number from well over 100,000 in California to less than nothing in 1942 triggered  the need to protect the grizzlies from human destruction and possible extinction. Grizzlies was a national specie and appeared in the flag of California. The population gradually reduced in most of the states of Idaho, Utah, Alaska and many more.

The grizzlies in 1975 were declared protected species to avoid being hunted or trapped by humans and to repopulate them in the areas where they once lived. Their future will depend largely on humans ability to allow them to coexist with them, by setting out a large area for them to live and regroup.

This will go to balance the ecosystem which has been tampered or disturbed by development.
