Answer: E. the food chain will be disrupted

Explanation:

The chemical fertilizers are the chemicals which contain essential elements which are required by the plants but not always present in the soil used for growing the crops.

According to the given situation, excessive use of fertilizers likely to affect the food chain of the agricultural ecosystem. As these fertilizers will be added up to the food chain. These fertilizers can be poisonous for microbes which act as decomposers of organic matter present in the soil. Also some of the insects will also get affected by the toxic chemicals. The plants will absorb these toxic chemicals which will be transmitted to the insects, herbivorous animals and to the humans. Hence, the toxicity will affect the population size of the susceptible species.

Therefore, the entire food chain will be disrupted by this way.

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Scientists learn how climatic changes during the ice age affected life in this region by analyzing specimens found in these tar pits  

Explanation:

La Brea Tar Pits are a group of tar pits in Los Angeles. Many preserved remains of ancient organisms (i.e., fossils) were extracted from the tar, including, among others, Western horses, prehistoric camels, three-toed tapirs, rodent bones, insects, mollusks, wood, plants, etc. The oldest fossils have been dated to be approximately 38,000 years ago by radiometric techniques. Moreover, the Last Glacial Period was the most recent glacial period within the Quaternary glaciation, which encompassed the period between 115,000 to 10,000 years ago. This period (LGP) encompassed the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), which occurred about 20,000 years ago. In consequence, many of the fossils found in La Brea Tar Pits evidence how the ice age affected life in this region. Moreover, many of the fossil species extracted from the tar are still present today, thereby indicating how these species adapted to fluctuating climatic conditions, whereas certain species couldn't adapt fast enough as the environment changed and therefore they went extinct.
