1. How might the extinction of the dry goatweed cause a decline in the tiger population?
2. A pesticide is slowly leaked into the plains region. The plains bushgrass survives but contains trace amounts of the pesticide within it. Scientists find that the pesticide can build up in the tissues of adult animals and cause sever birth defects in offspring. How will this affect each of the following: Bison, Cat, and Bear?
3. While visiting the Isle of Dell, you bring collect some of the verdigrass and bring it home for your garden. Within a few years, the verdigrass has spread throughout Franklin County and driven out and replaced other native plant species. Why did the verdigrass spread so quickly? What local environmental concerns may arise from the spread of this invasive species?
4. If climate change causes a rise in sea level, how will this affect the tiger population?
Ans1) Dry goatweed also known as horny goat weed or Epimedium these are perinneals and grows as rhizome, contributes to natural properties and helps in maintaining homeostasis, and musculo-neural regulation. According to a survey done by WWF in the recent year,it has been demonstrated that areas enriched with Epimedium population declined overr a period of time and as a result of this tiger population which was indirectly feeding on this weed lost the basic benefiial aspects of this weed and resulted in some or the other deformalities and lead to extinction
Ans2) There are reports on the bison affected with pesticides, the major reason of pesticides affecting could be the affecting membrane integrity, and also the milk production reduces. In the case of at and Bear affects the central nervous system leading to anxiety,obnoxious behaviour and above all an extreme dosage to all these can lead to mutation.
Ans3) The spreading nature is due to the bronze and copper get oxidized under atmospheric conditions. The environmental concerns include disruption of geological cycles and indirectly affecting the animal species
Ans 4) Climate change causes rise in sea level, this leads to the less land availability and the deforestation probability could be more aas to survive for the mankind, this will affect the life cycle of all the species and for the tigers the availability of dense forest and their food availibility will get resuced, thereby tiger poulation will be affected.
