ism and the smaller dots inside them represent a toxic substance. What is being represented and how does it harm the population?
A pyramid representing a marine food web. The lowest level shows 11 white circles each with one dot inside. The middle level shows four white circles with two or three dots inside. The top level shows one white circle with 11 dots inside.

The diagram represents biological half-life, in which toxins build up in organisms higher up on the food chain, and this can negatively impact humans who consume the organisms and the toxic substance.
The diagram represents biomagnification, in which toxins build up in organisms higher up on the food chain, and this can negatively impact humans who consume the organisms and the toxic substance.
The diagram represents the process by which different organisms prey upon each other; this can impact the human population by reducing the number of organisms that do not contain the toxin.
The diagram represents the way that toxins are metabolized by living organisms, with those at greater trophic levels able to metabolize more efficiently than those at lower levels. This means that those at higher tropic levels are safer for humans to consume compared to the organisms at lower trophic levels.

professor190 [17]

There are two types of succession that lead to the increasment of the ecosystem:

1. Primary succession is the change in the structure of an ecosystem represented with the increase of the ecological community on an area that has not been previously occupied by an ecological community such as area after the lava flow or glacial lake. The first organisms of primary succession are pioneer plants usually, lichens and mosses.

2. Secondary succession includes the step of removal of pre-existing community and after that, colonization of the new one.

How does geographic distribution of organisms support evolutionary theory?
Serga [27]
Because the organism is distributed across the world, and isn't seen anymore, scientists can conclude tat they must have evolved. They can compare one species to the fossils they may have found, and determine that they were related. Then by looking at the species on another part of the world compare the same fossils to other animals and determine that they are similar, sharing a common ancestor.

Why is a low pressue area like the one in the map created along a cold front?
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Cold, dense air squeezes its way through the warmer, less-dense air, and lifts the warm air. Because air is lifted instead of being pressed down, the movement of a cold front through a warm front is usually called a low-pressure system.

Explanation:

hope this helps
