Answer:

Biotic factors include: Fish (phytoplankton-eater, zooplankton-eater, predator)

, Crayfish

, Zooplankton

, Grasses, phytoplankton, herbivorous insect, worms, etc.

Abiotic factors include: Sunlight, Rainfall, Sedimentation, Weather, Minerals, Temperature.

Changes that would impact the biotic factors include:

Water, air pollution

Human activities: such as overfishing, rechanneling of the water for purposes such as irrigation, domestic or industrial use, or dredging of the bottom of the lake.

Explanation:

An ecosystem is composed of biotic and abiotic factors. Abiotic factors are non-living environmental factors such as water, air, soil, sunlight, and minerals. In aquatic ecosystems, abiotic factors include substrate type, water depth, nutrient levels, temperature, salinity, and waterflow. Biotic factors are the living organisms in the ecosystem and they include animals, birds, plants, fungi, etc.

In the image of the freshwater lake ecosystem given,

Biotic factors include: Fish (phytoplankton-eater, zooplankton-eater, predator)

, Crayfish

, Zooplankton

, Grasses, phytoplankton, herbivorous insect, worms.

Abiotic factors include: Sunlight, Rainfall, Sedimentation, Weather, Minerals, Temperature.

Changes that would impact the biotic factors include:

Pollution: pollution such as water pollution and air pollution will adversely impact the biotic factors.

Human activities: such as overfishing, rechanneling of the water for purposes such as irrigation, domestic or industrial use, or dredging of the bottom of the lake.

Tundra and desert biomes have shallow soil profiles because weathering is limited by a lack of
nalin [4]
<span>Extreme temperature and bedrocks Tundra and desert both have shallow soil profiles because of the extreme temperatures and the bedrocks it has. In the case of tundra, it has extreme cold temperature and the soil were covered in ice in long periods of time. Because of this, the plants were unable to get water from the bedrocks resulting in plants dying. In the desert, however, it has extreme hot temperature making the plants unable to survuve due to lack of water in the environment and in the bedrocks. The plants that can only survive in this temperature are the plants that has the ability to store water in their system.</span>

s344n2d4d5 [400]

<u>Answer</u>: C) They can find the neighborhoods that are in the most danger, where to set up shelters, and which routes will help people reach safety.  

<u />

<u>Explanation</u>: GIS is an extremely useful tool in analyzing geographic information. By overlaying  topographic data as well as infrastructure, populations, bio-physical datasets (e.g. flood, landslide, storm surge, earthquake data), vulnerable areas as well are relatively safe areas can be detected. Thus, routes to safety as well as shelter construction can be planned.

The strength of an earthquake as well floodwater depth cannot be determined in advance with GIS. The bio.physical datasets that are used come from events that have already occurred and not future events. With GIS the damage caused by a future even can be <em>estimated</em>, but the strength of the natural disaster itself cannot.
