PLEASE HELP! Scientists performed studies on mussels and clams. They placed these different species in fresh water that had cont

aminants commonly found in agricultural runoff and human and animal waste. Within a few days, the mussels and clams had removed the majority of the contaminants. How do these findings relate to ecosystem services in natural environments?
A.
Introducing new species of mussels and clams will help reduce erosion and runoff into rivers.

B.
Increasing the biodiversity of mussels and clams in freshwater ecosystems will improve water quality.

C.
Growing mussels and clams in rivers will provide humans with a steady source of food.

D.
Using a single species of mussel or clam will remove greenhouse gasses from the atmosphere.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Biodiversity basically means to increase the value or in this case, species of the mussels and clams so that they can improve water quality. Improving the water quality would be a service to the ecosystem. Therfore, I believe the answer is B.

What will happen to a population of predators if there is a sudden increased in food for the prey
Umnica [9.8K]
At first, the population of predators would spike and increase quickly, but then over time, gradually decrease.

(This is because at first there's more food, so the predators population increases. But overtime it begins to level out and the predators' population catches up with the prey, and in result, doesn't continue increasing.)

Tropical rainforests have high species richness of trees. Provide the most reasonable explanation why animal species richness is
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Here, is the question with the explanations to pick from to complete the question

Tropical rainforests have high species richness of trees. Which of the following statements provides the MOST reasonable explanation why animal species richness is also high in tropical rainforests?

Animals are unable to adapt to climate variability in higher latitudes.

Animals have had the same amount of time to evolve in rainforest areas as trees.

Animal diversification rates are higher than those of trees.

Animals have diversified into the vast number of niches provided by tree diversity

The last option is the most reasonable one

Our answer is:

Animals have diversified into the vast number of niches provided by tree

Explanation:

The reason is that a lot of species are highly specialized to occupy a particular niche. Where that favourable niche exists, the population of that species increases as its offspring colonize new areas.
