Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
The abundance of three algal species in Lake A is now represented by the vectors:
[97, 84, 43] and [100, 80, 50]
Now if we look at Lake A, the change occurring in the vector of algae species can be determined as:
a = [100 -97, 80 - 84. 50 - 43]
a = [3, -4, 7]
Thus, the magnitude of that change is:
The abundance of three algal species in Lake B is now represented by the vectors:
[25, 59, 22] and [20, 63, 15]
At Lake B, the change occurring in the vector of algae species can be determined as:
b = [20 -23, 63 - 59. 15 - 22]
b = [-3, -4, -7]
Thus, the magnitude of that change is:
Hence, for both Lake A and B, the magnitude of change is the same.
