Explain how a reduction in the amount of sunlight in an ocean ecosystem could cause greater competition among the consumers?

Less sunlight would likely result in fewer producers. A decrease in producers would cause greater competition among consumers for the decreased food supply.

What is the amber flush rose role in the ecosystem?
It is a producer. It is one of the sources in the ecosystem (that you are talking about) that produces energy form sunlight (most plants are producers because of their ability to make energy from sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis in the chloroplast organelle). (The insects that consume the amber flush rose for food which they will turn into energy through the process of respiration in their mitochondria organelle are consumers in this ecosystem. The organisms that consume those insects are also called consumers.) Sunlight & Soil->Producer(plant)->Consumers->Another Consumer or Decomposer->Soil The flow of Nutrients through an ecosystem is charted above.
What are the different parts of an ecosystem?
water, food, energy, oxygen and needs to be a suitable living condition. these are the 6 parts that make up an ecosystem. the different parts of an ecosystem are;primary producers,primary consumers,secondary consumers,tertary consumers and the decomposers help to make an ecosystem.........ecosystems contain biotic components-living organisms that inhabit the ecosystem as well as abiotic components of an ecosystem include water, soil, sunlight, minerals and other non-living things.
Explain how enery and nutrients enter move trough and exit a food chain in an ecosystem?
Nutrients enter autotrophs throght sunlight. then it is consumed through primary consumers...
How is the sun's energy passed along in an ecosystem?
The Sun's help from the sunlight helps the plants grow up
What is the original source of an ecosystem?
it is sunlight
What role does sunlight play within an ecosystem?
it begins the energy in the food chain of an ecosystem. It goes from the sun to the producers to the consumers

What is a consumers energy source?
sunlight
What ecosystem does dugongs live in?
in the sunlight zone
Who do producers depend on in an ecosystem?
Producers do not depend on other organisms in quite the same was as consumers do. They depend directly on the sun for energy. Other organisms do influence producers though, such as fellow producers competing for sunlight (blocking out from other producers) as well as consumers, which are a danger to producers.
What kind of water is in the tiaga ecosystem?
not much sunlight 5 minutes a day of sunlight
Why is the amount of sunlight important to the animals in an ecosystem?
The amount of sunlight is important to the organisms in an ecosystem because it affects the amount of producers. This affects them because they eat the producers.
What traits of an ecosystem does primary productivity measure?
The rate at which the ecosystem produces chemical energy from sunlight.
