Answer: Sympathetic Nervous System.

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system activates what is often termed the fight or flight response. The sympathetic nervous system directs the body's rapid involuntary response to dangerous or stressful situations. A flash flood of hormones boosts the body's alertness and heart rate, sending extra blood to the muscles. Breathing quickens, delivering fresh oxygen to the brain, and an infusion of glucose is shot into the bloodstream for a quick energy boost. The sympathetic nervous system allows animals to make quick internal adjustments and react without having to think about it.

If the producers in a food web were removed, which of the following changes would most likely occur?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

If the producers would be removed in the food web, then the whole ecosystem would fall down and die.

Explanation:

The reason why producers are important in a food chain is because they provide food for the herbivore animals, and then, the carnivore animals kill and eat the herbivore ones, and whatever is left, is eaten by the decomposers. So, if we remove the root of the tree (producers), then can the tree(rest of food web) survive? The simple answer is NO.

So, Hence, the ecosystem won't be able to last long, all animals will die.
