Human activities can cause certain species to become extinct, by affecting the specie’s habitat or food supply.
Could species adapt to different surroundings and food over time?
What if the change in food or habitat happened very quickly?
Yes
No, adaptation takes time

Why is this shape useful?
Each trophic level supports a lesser amount of biomass.

If a bee eats nectar from flowers and pollinates the flowers at the same
time, what type of relationship would it be?
Mutualism, they both get something
good.

In a habitat, horned toads eat ants and ants eat grass. What would
happen to the number of ants and amount of grass if horned toads
became extinct?
The ants would increase in number and eat more of the grass
causing the grass to decrease.

In a habitat, horned toads eat ants and ants eat grass. What would happen if the number of horned
toads increased?
The amount of grass would increase because there would be
less ants to eat it.

How could using a parasite for wasp larvae (immature wasps)
help control the wasp population?
The parasite could damage or kill the larvae, reducing the number that
would become adults and reproduce.

What trophic level of a food web would be the most damaging if it
died out?
producers
Can you explain why?
All the energy in the system starts with the producers. All other levels would
run out of food eventually.
