In a forest ecosystem, wolves hunt and eat deer. What would happen to the ecosystem if a large number of wolves were hunted and killed by humans? Choose the two correct answers. A. The number of deer would increase. B. The number of deer would decrease. C. The vegetation in the forest would increase. D. The vegetation in the forest would decrease. E. The vegetation in the forest would stay the same.

The correct answer would be -

A. The number of deer would increase

D. The vegetation in the forest would decrease.

Explanation:

If a large number of hunters or predators are removed from an ecosystem, then there will be, the change that will be found would be increase in the numbers of the prey in the ecosystem. Due to this increase in the numbers of prey the food resources would decrease.

In the given case, the number of deers will increase in absence of enough predators which will lead to overgrazing that will decrease the vegetation in the ecosystem.

answer:

convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics. heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere. the aesthenosphere (70 ~ 250 km) is part of the mantle, the middle sphere of the earth that extends to 2900 km.
