In the western U.S., ranchers aggressively killed wolves because they posed a threat to their cattle. As the wolf population dec

lined, the deer population began increasing. As a result, the surrounding forest ecosystems experienced increasing damage. The large number of deer ravaged vegetation and destroyed young trees. The entire ecosystem became degraded until wolves became protected when they were determined to be an endangered species. Based on this information, what can you infer about the role of the wolves in this ecosystem? Please make it 3-5 sentences. Thank you so much

Answer:

Explanation:

You can make a couple of statements.

  • The wolves are preditors. They eat meat.
  • The wolves hunt only 1 kind of food. They are not interested in young trees or grass (well not much anyway).
  • If one species is allowed to get out of control, the entire ecosystem suffers because of it.
  • This last statement only becomes true if man allows the hunted species that controlled the deer to regain good numbers. Man can be a blockhead sometimes; he learns slowly at times.

Answer:

The wolves role in the ecosystem is to hunt/eat deer. In the question it states, "...ranchers aggressively killed wolves because they posed a threat to their cattle. As the wolf population declined, the deer population began increasing." It's clearly cause and affect, the wolves use to eat a lot of deer, then a large percentage of wolves died by the ranchers. The wolves role in the ecosystem is to hunt deer and help balance out animal to vegetation ratio.

How many molecules of co2,h2o,c3h8, and o2 will be present if the reaction goes to completion?
Nadya [2.5K]

Let initially there are 10 molecules of O2 and 3 molecules of C3H8 present

The reaction will be

C3H8(g)  + 5O2(g)  ----> 3CO2(g)   + 4H2O

so here oxygen molecules are limiting as for 3 molecules of C3H8 we need 15 molecules of O2

now the given 10 molecules of O2 will react with only 2 molecules of C3H8 and they will form six molecules of CO2 and 8 molecules of H2O

Hence answer is

molecules of CO2 formed = 6

Molecules of H2O formed = 8

molecules of C3H8 left = 1

molecules of O2 left = 0

Why are sodium ions good for making batteries?
Wewaii [24]

The largest advantage of sodium-ion batteries is the high natural abundance of sodium. This could make commercial production of sodium-ion batteries less expensive than lithium-ion batteries. As of 2020, sodium ion batteries have very little share of the battery market.
