WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE SIZE OF THE CARNIVORE POPULATION IF THE HERBIVORE POPULATION INCREASED

Biology
2 answers:
Katen [24]3 years ago

Answer: Herbivores are the primary consumers in the food chain as they feed on the producers like plants. Carnivores feed on herbivores and so they are the secondary consumers or predators of herbivores.

If the herbivore population is increased, initially there will be more availability of food for the carnivores. Due to this, the size of carnivore population increases. As a result, gradually the herbivores now start depleting and they reach to a point that they are not sufficient to feed all the predators. This eventually causes the death of predators so that again the population of herbivore can reach the equilibrium.

The carnivore population would also increase because there would be a larger food-source for carnivorous so more of them would be able to survive

How does the ocean currents affect climate?
viva [34]

Horizontal currents moving northward or southward may carry warmed or cooled water for very long distance. The displaced warm water raises the temperature of the air while the cold water cools the air, and the land surface where the blows. For instance, water from the tropical Atlantic moves northwards through Atlantic in a Gulf Stream suffusing the Western Europe’s shores thus producing a mild climate. The mild climate raises the temperatures of the region higher than the regions across the Atlantic but on the same latitude. The Gulf Stream explains why Canada's east coast is locked in ice while England is not especially during winter. The current cooling events being experienced in Western Europe is attributed to the Gulf Stream slowing down as a result of the global warming which has caused the polar ice cap to melt and slowing down the Great Ocean Conveyor Belt.

What happens when fires clear forests? Is it as bad as human deforestation or not?
alekssr [168]
Fires that clear forest creates large amounts of smoke when wood is burned, while deforestation is where wood is just cut and used for supplies which also generates smoke from all the machinery, but it's not as much as fire creates. Both are bad but in my opinion fire is worse.
