some other species cant eat. all animals are part of the food chain, so 1 becomes extinct, there is soon problems for everyone else. often, other species die as well.
Typically, the species that it ate overpopulate, and the ecosystem is disrupted.
it effects the food chains
The diversity of an ecosystem is how many different species (or types of organisms) there are. If a species becomes extinct, then there is 1 less species in that ecosystem and there is less diversity. If more than one species dies out, then the diversity is decreased by more than one organism.
Non-native Species
If species disappeared from an ecosystem the balance in the ecosystem will be altered.
Native species are the ones already found in an ecosystem. The ones that move in from other places are called "invasive species."
keystone species is a species that has an unusually large impact on its ecosystem.
Many species become classified as endangered species when they are dying out.
Fungus, bacteria, insects and other animals scavenge the nutrients from the fallen tree - returning its energy back into the ecosystem.
it dies
There are many things that can cause an ecosystem to become endangered. When an ecosystem and the species in that ecosystem become endangered, it is known as a hotspot.
When the last living member of that species dies, the species become "extinct".
