Q4.16. Your colleague designed a common garden experiment to determine if moisture level influences competition between a
native alga and an exotic alga. The design includes four plot types: wet with native only, wet with exotic only, wet with both
algae, and dry with both algae. The results are below.
Plot
Native alga
Wet: native only Grew well
Wet: exotic only
n/a
Exotic alga
n/a
Grew well
Wet: both algae
Grew well
Dry: both algae Went extinct Grew well
Went extinct
You note that his experimental design is incomplete and, as a result, he cannot support one of the following conclusions. Which
conclusion is NOT supported?
The native alga's fundamental niche includes wet habitats.
The exotic alga's fundamental niche includes wet abitats.
The exotic alga competitively excludes the native alga in dry habitats.
The native alga competitively excludes the exotic alga in wet habitats.
MAKE CONNECTIONS Review the discussion of feedback regulation in Concept 1.1. Could effects of globalwarming on peatlands alter CO2 concentrations in waysthat result in negative or positive feedback? Explain.

Model/diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in the global ecosystem. You will need to create TWO models/diagrams of the sources and sinks of carbon. In the first model diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a natural, pre-industrial landscape. In the second model, diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a landscape altered by human activity and industry. Finally, write a few short sentences on what you would expect the atmospheric levels of CO2 to be in each model and why they would or would not be similar.arrow_forwardQ4.16.

- please draw! Create a model which accurately, in detail, depicts the potential pathways of carbon (biomass) and energy in an ecosystem with at least five trophic levels (don’t forget your decomposers, they can count as one trophic level). Make sure to incorporate the multiple pathways that biomass and energy could take at each trophic level. Lastly, clearly illustrate how carbon and energy flow in this ecosystem. Be sure to include adequate levels of detail for all pathways and differentiate the flow of carbon and energy in your model.arrow_forwardWhich of the following approaches would be the most effective way to reduce greenhouse carbon dioxide?
