Green, like grass and trees...?
Answer:
Results in biodiversity loss due to the proliferated growth of prey that feeds on smaller species
Please find the explanation below
Explanation:
In an ecosystem, organisms feed on one another to obtain energy. In this process organisms called CONSUMERS kill and feed on one another in a process called PREDATION. Top predators are those consumers that are found at the peak of the food chain.
A reduction in the number of top predators/tertiary consumers in an ecosystem means that the secondary consumers they feed on (prey) will grow and reproduce beyond control, hence, causing them to pose serious threat to the population of smaller species below them in the food chain.
Therefore, a decrease/decline in a top predator will impact biodiversity by causing it's loss, as organisms in lower level of the food chain will drastically diminish.
Heterospory, highly reduced gametophytes, ovules, pollen, seeds are the five adaptations common to all seed plants that ensure their success in the adaptation to land. Three things: The gametophytes of seed plants are reduced and dependent upon the parent sporophyte which protects them (particularly in the case of the female gametophyte). Pollen is covered with sporopollenin which is resistant to physical factors in the environment. The structure of the seed protects the next generation sporophyte and allows it to remain dormant until conditions are right for germination, development and growth.
Answer: Prey can avoid predators by minimizing their movement and their presence.
Explanation:
Prey minimize their presence and avoid predators by staying silent, staying in their refuge, and reduce their overall activity levels.
