</span>The milkweed is the primary producer in the
ecosystem. It manufactures food from the abiotic factors in the soil such as
nitrates and water and those in the atmosphere such as carbon-dioxide and
sunlight. The milk weed is then fed on by the caterpillar and a primary
consumer. The caterpillar is then fed on the mocking bird (secondary consumer)

</span>Increased human population growth and their activities
have resulted in the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in
the atmosphere. This has increased the global temperature. This increase of
global temperature increase ocean temperatures causing coral bleaching.
Another example is depletion of water sources
by human activities hence causing drought. Drought reduces the amount of
vegetation growth due to scarcity of water in the soil (due to lowering of the
water table) for plant growth.
Answer is;
The animal population in the environment will increase.
This is because the grass is the main producer in a habitat. Its plentifulness directly influences that of the consumers up the food web. Increase in grass population means reduced competition for primary consumers and their population will therefore increase. This will also reduce competition for secondary consumers and tertiary consumers up the chain.
The function of the cell membrane is to protect the cell from any outer surroundings that could be harmful to it.
That is the vacuole. They usually fill up with food, water, or other various wastes.
