Which species are closely monitored to assess human impacts on ecosystems?
Coolgirl783
Bio-indicator species are species that indicate changes in the environment. They are monitored to assess human impacts on ecosystems. For example, if the number of frogs in a marsh are very low , it means the humans impact on that marsh is very high.

What positive and negative impacts do aliens species have on ecosystems?
One positive impact is that the alien species may be able to control a pest species in an ecosystem. It may also bring social and economical benefits such as the process of reforestation reducing soil erosion.However, the alien species may also have negative impacts on the ecosystem. It may lead to increased competition with native species, reducing the chances of survival for native organisms. Native species may be driven to extinction and this reduces biodiversity. The presence of an alien species may also upset the balance between predators and prey.
What ecosystems would you expect to have high species richness and low species richness?
|I would expect the smaller ecosystems to have a high species richness and smaller ecosystems to have low species richness because the biodiversity in the smaller ecosystem is actually larger than the larger ecosystem causing many problems in the atmosphere... which over time can cause a extinction towards many living organisms.
DNA for certain proteins such as cytochrome is more similar in closely related species than it is in species that are less closely related why?
TRUE :)))
How can humans affect islands?
Humans can have both positive and negative impacts on islands. Positively, human activities such as sustainable tourism can contribute to the local economy and conservation efforts. However, negative human impacts can include habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species, pollution, and climate change, which can lead to loss of biodiversity and damage to island ecosystems. It is important for humans to minimize their negative impacts and promote sustainable practices to preserve and protect island environments.
What describes closely related species?
family
What is vanishing ecosystems?
Its when exotic species destroy or alture the ecosystems of native species
Ecosystems where species are endangered?
I thinks it where ecosystems where species are endangered are called hotspots

What is a hunting quota?
A hunting quote is a close monitored amount of animals of a certain species allowed to be killed by licensed hunters to prevent over population. Once a quote or certain amount of the animal species in that area is achieved, no more may be killed. Populations are closely monitored and maintained by your local and federal Departments of Fish and Game.
Why do introduced species often do so well in new ecosystems?
The new species adapts to the environment faster (or learns quicker). while it's adapting, the ecosystems are benefiting from the species.
Ecosystems where species are endangered called?
Hotspots
What does the acronym PEERS stand for?
The acronym P.E.E.R. stands for Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility. It is a group of people working to shed light on all the impacts humans have on the surrounding environments and ecosystems and how great of an impact it can be on other species.
What are some threats to ecosystems and the species within them?
Death
Why should populations of different species in oceans should be monitored?
populations of different species in the ocean should be monitored so that there is always source of food for the other ocean animals.
What percentage of fish species live in freshwater ecosystems?
33%?
What ecosystems would you expect to have high species richness and low species richness?

Did dinosaurs live in the forest or desert?
There were species that lived in all ecosystems.
