I found a presentation of Food web of a pond that will greatly connect with the above problem.  http://www.eduweb.com/portfolio/earthsystems/food/foodweb4.html

Normal setting:
Species        Pop. size
Blue heron   Medium
Perch            Medium
Bass              Medium
Minnows      Medium
Inverts          Medium
Algae           Medium

If PERCH population size decreases, 
Species        Pop. sizeBlue heron   LowPerch            LowBass              MediumMinnows      HighInverts          HighAlgae           Low

As you can see, 4 other species are affected when the Perch population size decreased. Bass is not affected.

Alik [6]
Heat energy is required.
In distillation, the solution is first heated, where heat energy is required, such as using a bunsen burner.
When the solution is heated, the water may reach its boiling point and evaporate. However, salt does not. When water molecules evaporates, it travels through a condenser that cools it down into liquid again. Therefore we get pure water. Salt is also obtained in the original beaker.
Therefore to first start this process, heat energy is required.

Which of the following is a likely mechanism for the reaction CH3Cl + OH- ----> CH3OH + Cl-, which is first order with respec
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

A one-step mechanism involving a transition state that has a carbon partially bonded to both chlorine and oxygen

Explanation:

The compound CH3Cl is methyl chloride. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction that proceeds by an SN2 mechanism. The SN2 mechanism is a concerted reaction mechanism. This means that the departure of the leaving group is assisted by the incoming nucleophile. The both species are partially bonded to opposite sides of the carbon atom in the transition state.

Recall that an SN2 reaction is driven by the attraction between the negative charge of the nucleophile (OH^-) and the positive charge of the electrophile (the partial positive charge on the carbon atom bearing the chlorine leaving group).
