snows. Snowshoe hares are also common in the area. According to the graph of the interactions between the lynx and the hare, what
best describes their ecological relationship?

Answer: B)  Predator/prey

=========================================================

Explanation:

The lynx is the predator that hunts and eats the snowshoe hare, which is the prey.

The graph shows that when the hare population is large, so is the predator population because they rely on the hares as a source of food. However, the more predators there are, the less prey there will be. This causes the prey population to decrease. In turn, this decrease causes the predator population to decrease as well. If there's less food, then some of the lynx population will starve to death.

At some point, the hare population will rebound and go back up due to less predators eating them. They have a better chance to survive. As the hare population goes up, so does the lynx population. They're both strongly linked together, and we have this cyclic pattern the graph indicates. You could say this is "the cycle of life" or "cycle of nature" so to speak.

This is a very simplistic viewpoint because it does not account for other factors such as other predators and other prey, and it also doesn't take account of things like habitat loss for instance. Despite that, such predator-prey models are still useful to understand the connection between the two species.

Answer:

1. Across the world, mining contributes to erosion, sinkholes, deforestation, loss of biodiversity, significant use of water resources, dammed rivers and ponded waters, wastewater disposal issues, acid mine drainage and contamination of soil, ground and surface water, all of which can lead to health issues in local.. 2.Mining in the real world can affect society, ecosystems, and the environment of a specific  region because all the minerals that you are looking for won't be right where you want them to be. It is not going to be in the same area. Instead, it will be scattered throughout the mines and you will have to search for them. 3.Students act as mining engineers and simulate ore mining production by using chocolate chip cookies. They focus on the cost-benefit analysis of the chocolate ore production throughout the simulation, which helps them understand the cost of production. As students “mine” with tools such as paperclips and toothpicks, they keep records of their costs—land (cookie), equipment used, cookie size before and after production, and time spent. While the goal is to make as much profit as possible, other costs and goals are taken into consideration—as in real-world mining engineering. For example, mining engineers also consider the resulting amount of destruction to the lithosphere when deciding the best method to obtain ore. Thus, a line item for land reclamation cost is included from the beginning. A provided worksheet serves as a profit and loss statement. 4.Mine reclamation is the process of restoring land that has been mined to a natural or economically usable state. Although the process of mine reclamation occurs once mining is completed, the planning of mine reclamation activities occurs prior to a mine being permitted or started.

Answer:

1. Latitude. Kuala Lumpur is located in the equatorial zone, near the equator, so it receives a lot of sun for the  entire year, and this explains its warm climate.

2. The main reason for this difference is the altitude: while Minsk is located at 280 meters over the sea level, Banff is located at approximately 1400 meters over the sea level. As the altitude is higher, the average temperature is lower.

3. Jakarta: in fact, it is located at a similar altitude of Kuala Lumpur (just in the opposite hemisphere), in the equatorial zone, while Baltimore is located much more north, so in a colder region.

4. Because they are located at approximately same latitude (just in the opposite hemisphere), so they are more or less same distance from the equator, and they receive more or less same amount of sun light, therefore they have similar climate.
