Extremely high temperatures in a grassland cause the ecosystem's carrying capacity for prairie dogs to decrease. which two terms describe the temperature is this scenario?

a. biotic factor
b. limiting factor
c. abiotic factor
d. niche

Abiotic factor and limiting factor.

Explanation:

Temperature is an abiotic factor though it affects the biotic components of an ecosystem. Increase in temperature could have lead to depletion of producers and this leads to decrease in the number of herbivores.

Decrease in the number of herbivores will decrease the food available for the prairie dogs. The food acts as limiting factor for the dog and hence affects the  carrying capacity.

In fact, the carrying capacity for the prairie dogs would have decreased.

fabric is silk wool ext. paper isnt

explanation:

u cant make fabric out of paper cause paper comes from wood while fabric comes from animals

4.) metal

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."
