YOU DONT HAVE TO ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS ANYTHING HELPS!! Read the article on the next page, then answer these questions: a. Explain how goats contributed to the erosion photo at the beginning of the article: b. Under the subtitle “Disturbing Trend…”, what are the reasons that our soil is damaged? c. What caused the “Dust Bowl”, and what can be done to avoid this type of disaster? d. Write something that you learned from the article, or a question that you have. Do we treat our soil like dirt? The effects of soil erosion By Dennis Dimick, National Geographic, adapted by Newsela staff The question above was the headline of a National Geographic article about soils in 1984. It remains as relevant today as it was back then, suggesting how little attention we continue to pay to how we grow our food. We lavish attention on our food, we want to know where it came from, who grew it, and whether it is "conventional" or "organic." But we give hardly a passing thought to the…

Need help with questions 1 and 2 please: 1.) A population of beetles is introduced into an environment where conditions are ideal allowing the beet population to reach its biotic potential for many generations. This population of beetles shows A.) logistic growth B.) linear growth C.) per capita growth D.) exponential growth 2.) Biotic potential is the highest possible per capita growth rate for a population. Which of the following would limit the biotic potential of an organism ? A.) many offspring per reproductive cycle B.) many reproductive cycles in a life span C.) limited resources D.) a high percentage of offspring surviving long enough to reproduce

Question: CAUSE: Large schools of Atlantic Cod were known to be in international waters off the coast of Canada/United States. Fishing boat technology increased in the mid-1900s. What was the combined EFFECT of increases in fishing technology and a plentiful stock of fish in international waters from the 1950s to the 1980s? Phenomena below: Resource Exploitation of the Atlantic Cod fishing stock Human Activities- Tragedy of the Commons Overexploitation of cod fishery- grand banks. Fishery was found in international waters, so boats from many different countries were harvesting fish. Each group was racing to catch the fish before another ship. No one was concerned about the stability of the fish population, only their own profits.

Article readings: Why some animals are more important to ecosystem than others.  From the article, list down all the species being described as keystone species and their negative effect when removed from their ecosystem.  Define the ‘Keystone species concept” and differentiate it from “morphological species concept”.  How does a keystone species plays its role in having a trophic cascade scenario? 1 sentence only.

Unit B - Rainforests are being clear-cut in order to make room for more profitable crops that can be used as biofuels. In Brazil, a monoculture consisting of fields of soya beans is being planted, replacing the native rainforest ecosystem that often consists of thousands of species. Unit B - Compare the previous rainforest ecosystem and the new monoculture ecosystem with respect to biodiversity and population size. Your response should include · an explanation of biotic limiting factors an explanation of abiotic limiting factors a discussion of the availability of habitats and niches

Organisms that damage crop plants are the most costly of introduced species. Weeds, pathogenic microbes, and arthropods that attack crops together account for half of the costs documented by Pimentel and his colleagues. What steps can we—farmers, governments, and all of us as a society—take to minimize the impacts of invasive species on crops?

Please answer both parts of the question with good explanation thank you! 1. A) How do the concepts of food webs, and trophic levels affect how we think about conservation biology and the efforts to preserve biodiversity? B) How does the concept of keystone species affect the conservation of ecosystem diversity?

New folder New folder ogy Posttest Spring 2021 Question 32 II Pause Zoom A man treated his home with a pesticide that kills roaches. The first application of the pesticide killed 92% of the roaches. Two months later, he applied the same pesticide to his home again, but the second application killed only 65% of the roaches. What would best explain the decrease in the effectiveness of the pesticide? The pesticide is effective only against mature roaches. The pesticide caused some of the roaches to mutate and metabolize the pesticide. The pesticide lost its effectiveness over a period of time The surviving roaches were naturally resistant to the pesticide and that resistance was inherited by their offspring 02021 luminate EducationM Inc.
