Answer: Water pollution causes a decrease in fish populations in a river.

Explanation:

An ecosystem is a biotic community which includes abiotic (non-living) and biotic (living) components. The abiotic components includes water, sunlight, wind, soil and temperature whereas the biotic components includes the living beings such as plants, animals, microbes and other. The dynamic equilibrium of the ecosystem can be defined as the condition in which the abiotic factors of the ecosystem supports the life of the biotic factors without undergoing any drastic change which could negatively affect the population of living beings.

The river water is an abiotic factor which can be a habitat of large diversity of marine flora and fauna. The pollution of water could negative affect the population of the fish residing in the river. This will disturb the balance of ecosystem. As, in the ecosystem various species interact with one another to survive. Hence, the dynamic equilibrium will be changed.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

If a splinter of wood enters the skin and introduces microorganisms to the site the body would first release chemical mediators like histamine then cause vasoconstriction. Platelets work to make a blood clot then neutrophils come in and vacillation occurs. This causes redness, warmth, swelling and pain. Edema and pus formation occurs therefore the neutrophils work to rid the area of cell debris and pathogens. Later the lymphocytes and macrophages will finish the job of the neutrophils and scar tissue is formed to repair the damaged tissue.
