What else can I help you with?
Why is it important that numbers of animals and plants in an ecosystem remain stable make up an example to show your point?
It is important that the population size of animals and plants to remain stable so the food chain runs fluidly. If you had a major increase or decrease of a species then that would cause drastic change to the environment. For example: given the food chain of grass, a grasshopper, a frog, a snake and a hawk if the grass population went under then the grasshopper, frog, snake and hawks population would drop because the grasshopper would eat the grass and without grass than the population would decrease along with the other. But if the frog population decreased then the grasshopper population would increase from the lack of frogs but the grass would decrease from the overpopulating grasshoppers while the snakes would decrease with the hawks. After a while though, despite the drastic over- or underpopulation, the environment would find a way to get itself stable once more.
What kind of snakes eat frogs?
Some snakes that eat frogs include garter snakes, water snakes, and ribbon snakes. These snakes are non-venomous and rely on their speed and agility to catch and consume frogs as part of their diet.
Snakes are members of Order?
Snakes are members of the Order Squamata, which also includes lizards. They are elongated, legless reptiles with flexible bodies and jaws that allow them to swallow prey whole. Snakes play important roles in ecosystems as both predators and prey.
Do snakes have eyelids?
No, snakes do not have eyelids. Instead, they have a transparent scale over their eyes called a spectacle, which helps protect their eyes.
At what temperature do copperhead snakes become inactive?
Copperhead snakes become inactive at temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
Why will the population of frogs decrease of the population of snakes increase?
Because the snake's will eat the frogs.
If the population of snakes increases the population of frogs will most likely?
Decrease, as snakes are predators of frogs and an increase in snake population would lead to more predation on frogs, reducing their population.
If the population of rabbits increase will the population of snakes increase?
Nature is like a system in equilibrium. If a change in any component nature, quality or quantity is imposed on it, it will try to suppress that change and try to nullify it. So if the number of rabbits increase that change will be nullified by many factors other than predators. Diseases, shortage of food etc. can happen. Also, the increase in the number of rabbits will provide a good habitat for the snakes and thereby help in more breeding. But this will happen only up to a particular limit after which there will be no more change.
How will the decrease in the snake population affect the rabbit population?
if the snake population decreases (meaning there are less of them) the rabbit population will increases (meaning there are more of them) all do to the rabbits not being consumed by the snakes.
What is the one factor that will increase eagle population in a food chain?
increase in the population of snakes and lizards
Why living things on earth are interdependent on each other?
because living and None has a coniction with each other..... Living things, with out realizing it, need certain organisms to keep order. Meaning, if there was too many snakes because the population of the hawk decreased then it would go like this: If the Hawk Population was to decrease then... Snakes would increase, small rodents would decrease, and plants would increase. In a way they work together keeping it from being over populated.
Do birds of prey eat boa constrictors?
Large birds of prey, like eagles, will eat young boas. The number of boa predators decrease as the snakes increase in size.
What will happen to number of hawks in a food web if the snakes in the web all dies?
it will decrease
Why would removing snakes from a food web might result in a decrease in the grasshopper population?
there would be no snakes to eat the frogs and with more frogs their would be less grasshoppers
If snakes population increase which organisms will be harmed?
Herivore, those animals which eat plants. for example, agouti, rabbit
If a field mice died what would happen to the number of grass snakes?
If field mice died, the number of grass snakes would likely decrease over time. Grass snakes rely on field mice as a primary food source; without this prey, their survival and reproduction rates could decline. Consequently, a reduction in the mouse population could disrupt the food chain, leading to a decrease in grass snake populations as they struggle to find sufficient food. This imbalance can have broader ecological impacts, affecting other species within the ecosystem.
How could the mouse population in the forest ecosystem affects the snakes?
Well if the snake eats mice then a plentiful supply of mice will mean the snakes are well fed and their numbers will increase. If there are but few mice, the snakes food supply will be inadequate and some may starve, leading to a reduction in the snake numbers.
