Temperature difference and Earth's tilt
The spread of roots around a plant is usually greater than the depth of the roots is a completely false statement. It totally depends on the type of plant in regards to the type of root it will have. Normally there are two kinds of roots and they are taproot and fibrous roots. In case of taproots the main root goes downwards and smaller roots branches out of it. In case of taproots, it is true that the spread of roots is smaller than the depth of the roots. In case of fibrous roots, the spread of roots is greater than that of the depth of the roots. A wig tree is an example of a plant having taproot. in the wig tree the root can go to a depth of around 120 meters.
I think that the plains, because the temp. is the same all around, cuz its flat... the mountains get cold at the top
Okay, I googled it because I wasn’t sure but, according to the article *ahem* “Destructive as forest fires may seem, forests often regrow in their wake. In some cases, however, forest fires become so intense they cause severe damage to the soil that may take years or even decades to repair”.
Hope this helped!
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.
