Shifting biomes could have consequences for the regions in which the shifts occur. Read the two cases below and decide which con
Nata [24]

Answer:

increased risk of wildfires- both

local economy suffers- Case 1

carbon storage decreases - Case 2

agricultural production decreases - Case 1

carbon storage increases -  Case 1

disease vector range changes - Case 2

decreased water availability - Case 1

local economy thrives - Case 2

species range changes - Case 2

Explanation:

Fires are common to  taiga biomes. Owing to the fact that the biome in case 1 changed from an agricultural community to a grassland and subsequently to a desert, agricultural productivity will decrease, the local economy will suffer, water availability is decreased and local economy suffers as a consequence of desertification.

On the other hand, in case 2, the diseases vector range as well as species range changes due to the change in the species of foxes from Artic foxes to red foxes that carry rabies. Carbon storage decreases as the taiga biome acts as a carbon sink. The local economy thrives due to timber production.

Lastly, species range changes both in case 1 and case 2 since there is a loss of species. Species range is the area where a particular species can be found during its lifetime. Certainly, the range of area where species are found changed in cases 1 and 2.

A few years after a devastating forest fire, pioneer trees become established. after another 50 years, those trees are replaced
Keith_Richards [23]
Abiotic factors composed of water, light, temperature and air etc. due to fire's this primary succession was completely destroyed. Their remaining organic bodies were decomposed in soil texture.

In order to establish secondary succession there is need of water and light, because water help in translocation of food and nutrients in plants while light is important for photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis need three major components. these are H₂O, CO₂ and light, all these components are abiotic part of ecosystem. However, when secondary succession occurs, then light play a key role in changing the composition of plant community. The best example is the difference in height of plants of different community.

How does a endotherm and ectotherm react to the heat?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Ectotherms warm their bodies by absorbing heat from the surrounding environment, whereas Endotherms produce heat by their metabolic activities. • Ectotherms have large variations in normal body temperatures while endotherms maintain their body temperature in a fairly constant value
