Would a forest fire increase or decrease the probability of a mass movement of birds and animals away from that area?
Birds and animals flee from forest fires. However, often they cannot outrun the fire and often, animals have to compete with humans to access routes out of the fire zone. For example, in the 2016 Canadian forest fire, videos taken by drivers fleeing the fire also show 4-legged animals racing alongside the road. Small game with tunnels underground will try those routes to escape, but can be overcome by heat or smoke. Many small game such as rabbits might survive, but have burnt paws and underbellies. Overall, the death toll can be staggering for insects, birds, small game, and large wildlife.
What else can I help you with?
If foxes and hawks are removed from this food web one result will be?
An increase in the population of the animals that foxes and hawks prey on, leading to a potential decrease in plant-eating animals as they are consumed more. This disruption in the predator-prey balance could lead to changes in vegetation and overall ecosystem health.
What might happen if the population of hawks in ecosystem grows very large?
there would be less nutrients for the plant.
What might cause an increase in the population of mice in a habitat?
Several things could cause it. A decrease in any predator that feeds on mice will cause an increase in mice population because less of them will be eaten by other animals. An increase in the mice food supply could cause an increase in population too, especially if lack of food was the main limiting factor of the mice population. In very rare circumstances, additional mice could be brought in from other parts of the world by humans. There are some non-native fish living in lakes because someone put some in there and they started to breed.
What would be the effect of removing an organism from the food web?
Removing an organism from a food web can disrupt the balance of the ecosystem. It can lead to an increase in the population of its prey and a decrease in the population of its predators, impacting the overall biodiversity and stability of the ecosystem.
What impact would a flood have on the biodiversity of a community?
A flood can have both positive and negative impacts on biodiversity of a community. It can disrupt habitats, lead to loss of species, and decrease biodiversity in the short term. However, floods can also create new habitats, increase nutrient availability, and promote species diversity in the long term as ecological succession occurs.
Why do population fluctuate?
Extinction, climate change, decrease or increase in animals, loss of food.
What is the importance of babesia in animals?
Economic loses due to death of the animals - increase of mortality rate , decrease of products , and poor growth of animals
Would vegetation increase or decrease if more animals relied on it?
Vegetation would decrease. Simply because, if more animals relied on it, there would be less time for the vegetation to recover - as happens with grazing herds. Once an area of grassland has been eaten, animals migrate to another area. This allows the original grassland to recover in time for the animals returning.
Can sheep open or close the thermal windows?
animals may change their position (increase or decrease) the area of thermal windows related to surrounding environmental temperature.
What would happen to a food chain if there was an increase in the hawk population?
Hawk prey would decrease, and hawk predators would increase, making hawks decrease again. So to put it in context... Hawks eat mice, right? So the mouse population would increase, meaning more food for other animals that eat mice, like owls. So the owl population would increase, making mice decrease. Then animals that might eat hawks (I don't know if anything does) would increase, and eat all of the hawks then everything would eventually even out again.To answer your question, lots of things will happen, but it will all even out again.
What will happen if photosynthasis stops?
if photosynthesis stops animals will not get food to eat .The amount of oxygen will decrease and amount of carbon dioxide will increase and the ice will melt which can cause floods.
Can you fight water pressure?
No, because water have actually more pressure than any human beings or other animals species. Water pressure could increase and decrease.
If foxes and hawks are removed from this food web one result will be?
An increase in the population of the animals that foxes and hawks prey on, leading to a potential decrease in plant-eating animals as they are consumed more. This disruption in the predator-prey balance could lead to changes in vegetation and overall ecosystem health.
What is the function of baroreceptor?
Baroreceptors are a type of sensor that are present in the blood vessels of all animals who have a spine. The function of baroreceptors is to detect an increase or decrease in blood pressure and to respond to these changes in pressure.
Can you fight against water pressure?
No, because water have actually more pressure than any human beings or other animals species. Water pressure could increase and decrease.
What is the probability of the saber-toothed tigers still existing?
The probability of sabre-tooth tigers still existing as living animals is zero.
What would happen to the ecosystem if dolphins disappeared from the food chain?
Animals that they eat such as krill and fish will increase dramatically since they will not have as many predators after them. This will eventually decrease the number of space in the ocean
