Every change that occurs in an ecosystem is harmful True or False?
False. Not every change that occurs in an ecosystem is harmful. Some changes can be beneficial, such as the introduction of a new species that fills a vacant ecological niche or the restoration of a degraded habitat. However, certain changes, such as habitat destruction or pollution, can have negative effects on the ecosystem.
What do you call a tornado that occurs under water?
There is no such thing. A vortex that develops in water and may bear some visual resemblance to a tornado is called a whirlpool.
What are the changes in species on a tornado?

What are some events that change a habitat?
Natural disasters such as a hurricane, tornado, or earthquake. Man made 'disasters' such as a fire, toxic waste, or deforestation.
How far should you be from an F1 tornado?
You should probably stay at least a quarter mile away from any tornado. This keeps you safe from debris and can give you some time to move if the tornado changes direction. Note, however, that you cannot judge the intensity of a tornado based on its appearance. It is a common misconception that a narrow tornado will be weak, when in fact it can be of any intensity. Even an F5 tornado can be skinny.
What are some changes in habitat when a tsunami occurs?
The changes can drastically be changed. The shelter can be destroyed. The place can become more polluted. The population will decrease so much. +++ The main victims are humans and their property. The natural world recovers from natural events like tsunamis eventually, but the inundated area will have gained a lot of salt, with possibly deleterious effects on vegetation for some time.
Why are there more deaths from a tornado when it occurs where a tornado rarely happens?
There are two explanations for that and they are both likely factors. First, in areas where tornadoes are rare there is less tornado preparedness, and some people might not know to take shelter, especially if there are no sirens. Some people might not even take warnings seriously, believing that a tornado couldn't actually happen in their area. By contrast, in many parts of Tornado Alley tornado drills are almost as routine as fire drills. Secondly some of the less tornado prone areas, such as the northeastern United States, are more densely populated than the largely rural Tornado Alley, giving tornadoes a greater opportunity to cause fatalities.
What is a tornado called when it is wet?
Most tornadoes contain moisture and are in fact made visible at least in part, by condensation. These are simply typical tornadoes. Some tornadoes are surrounded by heavy rain that falls even right where the tornado is. This is often called a rain wrapped tornado. A tornado that occurs on a body of water such as a lake or the ocean is called a waterspout.
What is the usual shape of a tornado?
Tornadoes come in different shapes, and the shape changes during the life of the tornado. Some tornadoes are like thin tubes or ropes, some look like large wedges. If it is wrapped in rain, or there isn't enough light, it can be hard to see a tornado. Sometimes clouds may look like a tornado but aren't, so looking for other clues like rotation is important.
Why do some fish changes their gender?
