Answer:
Consumers must obtain their nutrients and energy by eating other organisms. Decomposers break down animal remains and wastes to get energy.

Answer: Increase
According to the competitive exclusion principle, when two or more species in an ecosystem are competing for the same resource. The one which has undergone favorable adaptation and more competing will be likely to derive those resource than the one which has not undergone adaptation or less adaptive to the environment and less competing. Squirrels and chipmunks compete for the same food source and this food source became scare one of the two species is likely to disappear according to the competitive exclusion principle because the degree of competition between two species will increase.
Measuring photosynthesis via the production of oxygen. Oxygen can be measured by counting bubbles evolved from pondweed, or by using the Audus apparatus to measure the amount of gas evolved over a period of time.
Other than contributing to potential increase in diversity of species in an ecosystem, exotic species have positive benefits like removing toxins from the soil, regulating erosion, and controlling undesirable species.
