What are some elements of ecosystem that are lost if plants in that areas are removed?

its the roots and soil.


What would happen to nitrogen cycle if plants were removed by pesticides?

Pesticides stop the nitrogen cycle by suppressing nitrogen-fixing bacteria from replenishing natural nitrogen fertilizer in soil. This results in lower crop yields, stunted growth, and an ever-greater need for additives to boost production.


What would happen to the pH soil if you dumped bleach into the ground?

Soil will be degraded.


What would happen to the crops if there was too much rain?

All field crops need soil, water, air and light (sunshine) to grow. The soil gives stability to the plants; it also stores the water and nutrients which the plants can take up through their roots. The sunlight provides the energy which is necessary for plant growth


What would happen if all decomposers were removed from a temperate forest ecosystem?

If all decomposers were removed from a temperate forest ecosystem, organic matter such as dead plants, animals, and waste would accumulate, leading to a buildup of detritus. Nutrient cycling would be severely disrupted, as decomposers play a crucial role in breaking down organic material and recycling nutrients back into the soil. This would ultimately hinder plant growth, reduce soil fertility, and impact the entire food web, as producers and consumers would struggle to thrive without the essential nutrients provided by decomposition. Over time, this could lead to a decline in biodiversity and the overall health of the ecosystem.
