The table below compares wildlife supported by two plants growing around a lakeside ecosystem in South Florida. Plant Species and Wildlife Data
Plant Species Wildlife Supported
Sawgrass Alligators, Snails
Melaleuca None

After a 25-year period, 95% of the ecosystem was covered by melaleuca. What would be the likely impact of this on the wildlife population?
Decreases, as shelter is a limiting factor
Increases, as shelter is a limiting factor
Decreases, as water is a limiting factor

Electromagnets coils of wire paper clips picked up 10 3 15 6 20 9 25 12 ms. owens' class was studying magnets. ms. owens showed her students how to make an electromagnet using a nail, a d-cell battery, and plastic coated wire. the students wrapped the wire around the nail and then attached the ends to the battery. when they were finished, they tested their magnets by investigating how many paperclips their magnets could pick up. they also tested whether they could increase the strength of their electromagnets by using more coils of wire. they recorded the class average of their results in the data table seen here. ms. owens asked her students to graph their data in a line graph. how should the students label the x-axis on their line graph? a) size of battery b) number of paper clips c) number of coils of wire d) strength of electromagnet
