An open circulatory system simply
means that the blood flows out of vessels and into the spaces or sinuses. Invertebrates,
insects and crustaceans has an open circulatory system where pump blood goes
into a hemocoel and diffusing back to the circulatory system between cells. In
other animals, the heart pumps the blood into the body cavities, spaces or
sinuses, where the blood surrounds the tissues.
Wheres the question?That is a statment.
Yes, Organisms compete for the resources they need to survive like food, air, water, space. In areas where these are sufficient, organisms live in comfortable co-existence, and in areas where resources are abundant, the ecosystem boasts high species richness (diversity).
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.
