The presence of a top predator also helps to maintain balance in an ecosystem by influencing the behaviour and movements of its prey through the fear of being caught.

<h3>What is Trophic Cascade ?</h3>

trophic cascade, an ecological phenomenon triggered by the addition or removal of top predators and involving reciprocal changes in the relative populations of predator and prey through a food chain

When a top predator is removed from an ecosystem, a series knock-on effects are felt throughout all the levels in a food web, as each level is regulated by the one above it.

The results of these trophic cascades can lead to an ecosystem being completely transformed.

How are the shoulder girdle and pelvic girdle similar in structure and function

yulyashka [42]

The shoulder (pectoral) and pelvic girdles are both structures for limb articulation. The shoulder girdles are to the upper limbs as the pelvic girdle is to the lower limbs. Shoulder girdles connect the upper arms with the axial skeleton and consist of the clavicle and scapula.

The pelvic girdles consist of the hip bones, the sacrum and the coccyx and are located between the abdomen and the thighs.

What waste product does aerobic organisms release into the environment that plants use during photosynthesis

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer: Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Aerobic organisms (like us!) are organisms that need oxygen. That means they consume oxygen ( $O_{2}$ )and release carbon dioxide ( $CO_{2}$ ).

That carbon dioxide is the waste product that is taken up by plants during photosynthesis to create more oxygen and sugars (as "food" for the plants). This is seen in the equation for photosynthesis, where the things that are consumed by plants are on the left of the arrow, and the things produced are on the right:
<span>6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy ==> C6H12O6 + 6O2</span>
