Changes in the Food Chain Population

If one population were to change in a food change it would have a chain reactions. For example, if the dung beetles go through emigration then they would not do their role of decomposing the lions waste, or carcass, in effect this would lead to end of the food chain. In other words the chain would not be able to continue and start all over.

Factors that Affect the Population

Positive Negative

-high birth rates -high death rates

-high amount of resources -low resources

-lack of predators -too many predators

-immigration -emigration

-natural disasters

Biodiversity in Savanna

covered with a vast of acacia trees is the savanna. And living among it are various species, starting from the vicious lion to the meek Zebra. ALSO POPULAR ANIMALS ARE Elephants, Giraffes, crocodiles, and gazelles. many of these animals are always by water holes where they spend most of their days hunting for food and quenching their thirst.

Changes in Biodiveristy Ecosystem

If one biodiversity factor would to change it would most likely have a negative impact, Factors such as overexploitation, climate change, pollution, habitat loss, and invasive species. If one were to occur it would such as habitat loss they changes would be drastic. not only would animals loose their homes but removing high amounts of resources from the environment.

In the following graph this is expressing changes exponentially, since it does does not grow out steadily and reaches a plateau. This also means it does not have carrying capacity. This falls under exponential growth because even though it is not always increasing, it's decreasing and does not have carrying capacity.
