group b. is called the control group. it is important to compare the 2 groups for any similarities. this determines if the medications in group a are working like intended. to keep track of side effects w/group a..
The correct answer is - predator species in a community.
In the terrestrial ecosystems, a very good and usually sure predictor of the biodiversity is the existence of a predator species. The more predator species there are, the higher the biodiversity, and vice versa, the less predator species, the lesser the biodiversity.
The reason why the predators are such a good predictor of the biodiversity is that they are the species that are on the top of the food chain. That means that the predators are dependent for their survival on all the other species bellow them in the food chain, which is pretty much all species apart from themselves.
If a predator is present, than there has to be pray. If there's pray, omnivores and herbivores, than there has to be plants. All of the organisms are connected to one another, and the ones on the top of the food chain are the most dependent on the others, thus their existence usually means a healthy ecosystem with higher biodiversity.

One of the main source of sediment in flowing water is soil erosion.
Explanation:
Soil erosion is the washing away of top most layer of soil due to various reasons.
Agents of soil erosion are: wind, water, animals, ice or gravity.
Water is one of the biggest agent or cause of soil erosion. Water carry lots of energy in its motion. When water moves from any area it carries away topmost layer of soil with it. The soil that is being carried away by water is sediment.
When this water reach river, lake or any other water source, sediments carried by them enters that source of water. Sediment results in water pollution.
