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
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.
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.
The mass of an electron 1/1823 amu's = 0.0005 amu's... the average mass of litium is 6.941 amu's. by losing an electron, the mass of average atomic mass of the Lithium doesn't really change much.
