h gar and diving ducks eat crabs. The data showed that recently the alligator population has decreased. How could the decrease in the alligator population affect the other populations?

Answer:

There wouldn't be enough resources for the alligator population to live off of thus decreasing its population number. This decrease affects the other populations because it without alligators, its predators and prey wouldn't gain its nutrition from it and it would overall change its environments' habitation. The gar population would increase because they wouldn't be eaten by the alligators and therefore increasing the diving duck population as well. The crab population would decrease because the gar (their prey) population increased which overcomes the number of crab in the population.

How do shale oil and tar sands compare to conventional<br> (regular) oil deposits?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Oil shale is a form of sedimentary rock that contains kerogen, which is released as a petroleum-like liquid when the rock is heated. Tar sands are a combination of clay, sand, water and bitumen, which is a heavy hydrocarbon.

Additional info:

The term oil sands refers to a particular type of nonconventional oil deposit that is found throughout the world. Oil sands, sometimes referred to as tar sands, is a mixture of sand, clay, other minerals, water, and bitumen. The bitumen is a form of crude oil that can be separated out from the mixture.

The primary distinction between crude or conventional oil and shale oil is the way it collects. The oil in shale is typically found in smaller batches. As a result, shale oil often needs to be fractured so that the oil trapped within the shale can be recovered.
