Which events can cause an ecological disturbance? Select the three correct answers.

Biology
1 answer:
kvasek [131]2 years ago
5 0

A, B and C are the events that will cause an ecological disturbance.

Rationale:

A. Introduction of a new species: When a new specie is introduced, it increases the competition in ecosystem with the native species for food, water, space and shelter. This affects the reproductive success of the native species and thus the dynamics of ecosystem.

B. Climate change: Climate change is different from a simple change of weather. The best example would be of Antarctica where the ice is melting fast due to the global warming. The native species find it harder to adapt to the warm temperatures.

C. Late spring snowstorm: Spring is the season where the plants grow and animals shed their fur. When snowstorms occur in this season they harm these plants and animals that live there.

Which diagram shows the pathway of energy through an ecosystem?
Iteru [2.4K]
Question 1:
The correct answer should be the one that shows the producer first, (->) followed by the herbivore, (->) with the carnivore last.
Producers are organisms that harvest their own 'food' using things like the sunlight and water. Examples of producers are grass and other vegetation.

Producer
The herbivore, or an organism that consumes only vegetation and/or algae, consumes the producer.

Producer ⇒ Herbivore
The carnivore consumes meat, or other animals such as the herbivore. It's the last. 

Producer ⇒ Herbivore ⇒ Carnivore
Therefore the answer is B.

Question 2:
 I'm pretty sure that succession as well as regrowth after volcanic eruption (Just look at Mount St. Helens. After 30-35 years after the eruption, nature is still recovering) happens over time/slowly. I would say global warming [C](?) would be the answer.
