How might an invasive species threaten biodiversity

Geography
1 answer:
nika2105 [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The invasive s p e c i e s tend to diminish the populations of native s p e c i e s because they outcompete them, and also manage to disturb the ecosystem.

Explanation:

The invasive species can or cannot be dangerous for the native biodiversity, but unfortunately, it is the second one that is much more common. The reasons as to why the invasive species tend to threaten the biodiversity are that they often don't have a native predator that will control their numbers, outcompete the native species for resources, and the native species don't have defense mechanisms against them. These factors result in havoc in the ecosystem in a relatively short period, with the potential to totally destroy it and changed it.

There are thousands of examples of invasive species around the world, some much more obvious than others. The Burmese pythons in Florida for example, have started to overtake the a p e x predator niche from the alligators by directly attacking them. On the other side of the world, in Australia, the cats and rabbits have contributed to leading hundreds of native species on the verge of extinction, and if there hasn't been human intervention there is a very high chance that a lot of native species would have been already extinct.

1. When air temperature increased, what happened to soil temperature? When air temperature decreased, what happened to soil temp
myrzilka [38]

When the air temperature increases, the temperature of the soil increases as well, usually more than the air temperature itself.

When the air temperature decreases, the temperature of the soil decreases too, very often more in lesser amount than the air temperature itself.

Both the air and the soil are able to increase and decrease temperature very quickly. The air though is able to change its temperature quicker, while the soil needs a little more time because it is able to accumulate certain amounts of heat for some period of time.

What human action can change the course of a waterway?​
choli [55]
Human activity has a great impact on waterways. Decreased amounts of vegetation leads to erosion of water banks. Increased fertilizer and nutrients levels in water from agriculture, sewage, and industry lead to the formation of algal blooms and subsequent decrease in other aquatic organisms.

How do rivers and streams transport matter?
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Rivers transport particles, from fine ones such as silt in turbid water to coarser ones such as sand, gravel, and boulders associated with bed-load transport. The speed and turbulence of currents enable transportation of these materials. When riverbed gradient or the river flow diminishes, particles tend to drop out.
