Use the drop-down menus below to provide a claim that can be made about trees that release seeds living in floodplain ecosystems
based on these data.
The graph shows that the numbers of severe flooding events have been (Increasing/decreasing) over time. If this trend continues, the numbers of seed-releasing tree species living in floodplain ecosystems is likely to (Increase/decrease) This would result because the seeds released by the trees would (not be able to/ better be able to) grow in the (Overly saturated, overly dry, nutrient rich) soils. This change in the number of trees and the species abundance of trees in the floodplain would result in a ( less stable/more stable) and (less diverse/more diverse) ecosystem.
