Procedure: Drag and drop the effect cards to the correct spot in the table. Use the legend at the bottom to decipher and unscramble the code word. Answer the questions on your answer sheet. Effect Cause Effect An increase in biodiversity to the region. Cause Programs like "Rigs to Reefs" convert old oil rigs in the oceans into artiicial reefs. Effect Large swaths or plastic float on top of the ocean while microplastics sink to deeper ecosystems. Cause Overfishing in an area to meet consumer demands. Effect Cause Excessive fertilizer runoff into rivers and streams that flow into the ocean. An increase in algae blooms which takes oxyge out of the water and creates "dead zones". Effect Cause Pollution from sources such as single-use plastics enter the oceans on a daily basis. A decrease in organism populations and possibly biodiversity. LEGEND

Can you help me
Need help with questions 1 and 2 please: 1.) A population of beetles is introduced into an environment where conditions are ideal allowing the beet population to reach its biotic potential for many generations. This population of beetles shows A.) logistic growth B.) linear growth C.) per capita growth D.) exponential growth 2.) Biotic potential is the highest possible per capita growth rate for a population. Which of the following would limit the biotic potential of an organism ? A.) many offspring per reproductive cycle B.) many reproductive cycles in a life span C.) limited resources D.) a high percentage of offspring surviving long enough to reproduce

Explain the process of biological magnification using a real hypothetical ecosystem to illustrate the process.
Use the data and graph below to completely and correctly answer these two questions: 5. Based on your data in Table 2 and Figure 2., how do rainfall/temperature correlate with productivity/diversity in biomes? 6. Suggest a hypothesis to explain the correlation in question 5. Label the answers and don’t use previous answers/versions. Be complete and correct
Question: Think and research the effects of humans' buildings structures, communities, etc. on undeveloped land. Particularly, look at natural species in Texas, as well as the physical environment.
The term biomagnification refers to the: Question 13 options: Rate at which the primary producers can incorporate energy from the sun. An organism that can make its own food using energy from inorganic molecules instead of the sun. Total weight of the living or previously living organisms in an area at one time. The way in which persistent toxic molecules build in concentration in higher trophic levels.
The resource page discusses an increasing threat of nuisance flooding in North Carolina. To understand what nuisance flooding is, you have to have a basic understanding of tides. How are tides generated and propagated around ocean basins? Explain how the factors that control tides change over the course of one month and tie that back to the problems with nuisance flooding. Please be sure to reference your article (include information about it) in your answer and define any scientific terms your audience may not know.
