How do landslides impact wildlife

Biology
1 answer:
Alisiya [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

1.Because, it destroys there habitat 2. it takes there food away and 3. it could kill them

Explanation:

Landslides affect the following elements of the environment: (1) the topography of the earth’s surface; (2) the character and quality of rivers and streams and groundwater flow; (3) the forests that cover much of the earth’s surface; and (4) the habitats of natural wildlife that exist on the earth’s surface, including its rivers, lakes, and oceans. Large amounts of earth and organic materials enter streams as sediment as a result of this landslide and erosion activity, thus reducing the potability of the water and quality of habitat for fish and wildlife. Biotic destruction by landslides is also common; widespread stripping of forest cover by mass movements has been noted in many parts of the world. Removal of forest cover impacts wildlife habitat.

The ecological role that landslides play is often overlooked. Landslides contribute to aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity. Debris flows and other mass movement play an important role in supplying sediment and coarse woody debris to maintain pool/riffle habitat in streams. As disturbance agents landslides engender a mosaic of seral stages, soils, and sites (from ponds to dry ridges) to forested landscapes.

Plzzz help with the one with the membrane picture
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1.) The solute molecules will not move between the two sides because the membrane does not have large enough spaces for the molecules to move through. The water molecules will move to the right side because water moves to places of a higher solute concentration.

2.) The right side represents high concentration because it contains the majority of the solute molecules.

3.) The left side represents low concentration because it contains a small amount of solute molecules compared to the right side.

What happens when a low air pressure system meets a high air pressure system?
choli [55]

Answer:

High in the atmosphere, air pressure decreases. ... A low pressure system has lower pressure at its center than the areas around it. Winds blow towards the low pressure, and the air rises in the atmosphere where they meet. As the air rises, the water vapor within it condenses, forming clouds and often precipitation.

telo118 [61]

Answer:

1. transcription of Tau DNA in different directions.

4. different chemical modifications of Tau protein.

Explanation:

Tau gene transcribe in different direction which depends upon the animal age. This happens because at different age and developmental stage, animal produce different RNA binding proteins which leads to formation of alternative splice forms. This reaction is strengthen by the addition of phosphate and sugar molecules which again depending on developmental stage and time.
