Answer:

Warmer ocean temperatures can cause fish to move to colder water farther from pelican nest sites

Explanation:

climate change is an important factor that affects the migration of fish from one place to the other. fish is seen to migrate/move from a warm water(heat) to a cold water/region so as to ensure their survival. the activities of man has affect the climate of our environment causing more heat the water bodies.

the gradual rise in the temperature of the ocean is forcing this species to leave their natural habitat.

How does the introduction of invasive species such as the brown tree snake upset the stability of the legal system
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Invasive species compete for the same natural resources such as food and water which the native species also need for survival.

Explanation:

Invasive species upset the stability of the ecosystem because the prey in their new environment does not have the needed defense against them. They also upset the food chain, consume so much, and overpopulate in the new territory thus causing the extinction of the native species.

The introduction of brown tree snakes in Guam disrupted the ecological system as their population increased rapidly because their preys in this new environment lacked the ability to defend themselves against the brown tree snakes. For this reason, more than twelve native birds in the Guam Islands went into extinction. They also consumed the natural resources needed for the survival of the native species.
