Non-Alaskan grizzly bears are indicator species for mountain ecosystems. In the nineteenth century, the grizzly bear nearly went
borishaifa [10]

Explanation:

Animal indicator list is a barometer to check how a particular ecosystem is affecting the lives of particular animals. The indicator measures  stress or behavior in the ecosystem to know whether to protect  the specie or allow them undisturbed

This is to avoid or reduce to barest minimum incidences of extinction of such specie in the ecosystem.

The grizzly sudden reduction in number from well over 100,000 in California to less than nothing in 1942 triggered  the need to protect the grizzlies from human destruction and possible extinction. Grizzlies was a national specie and appeared in the flag of California. The population gradually reduced in most of the states of Idaho, Utah, Alaska and many more.

The grizzlies in 1975 were declared protected species to avoid being hunted or trapped by humans and to repopulate them in the areas where they once lived. Their future will depend largely on humans ability to allow them to coexist with them, by setting out a large area for them to live and regroup.

This will go to balance the ecosystem which has been tampered or disturbed by development.

Justify why ethiopia still remains to be the least urbanized country in the world
rewona [7]

Answer:

Ethiopia is most densely populated in the highlands where most people live as farmers. In the 1980s, the Socialist regime made unsuccessful attempts to forcibly relocate people away from the civil war and gather the people in new villages. Ethnically, the population is very mixed and hundreds of different languages ​​are spoken.

More and more Ethiopians are seeking refuge in the cities today than ever before. The biggest reason why more and more Ethiopians are moving to the cities is that wages are higher there than in the countryside and that there are more jobs to choose from (in the countryside it is mostly agriculture). Despite that, only 20% of the population lives in cities and other urban areas.

Isostasy is a state of balance or equilibrium between the lithospheric plate and the underlying mantle, the asthenosphere. Due to the weight of the lithosphere, part of it sinks into the plastic asthenosphere and settles to an equilibrium position. This is what causes changes and differences in elevation on the earth.
