It is a major problem in Victoria’s Strzelecki, Otway and Dandenong ranges. More than 1000 dairy farms are affected by the weed. Biological control involves introducing a living predator (plant or animal) to control the species rather than using a chemical pesticide. Researchers are examining the use of beetles and moths as a biological control for ragwort. The beetles and moths will feed on the weed. This is an alternative to using chemical pesticides to kill the ragwort. For biological control to contribute to ecologically sustainable development, it is essential that. pesticide companies maintain profits. food production is high in all regions. there is community support for biological control. biological control does not degrade the environment for future generations.arrow_forward

Mark this and return Biosphere 2 was a failed experiment at creating an enclosed self-sustaining ecosystem. The ecosystem was not able to thrive, and plants could not continue growing.

- Which of the scenarios below illustrate(s) a trade off relating to functional diversity and life history traits? Select all that apply A- The C3 photosynthetic pathway is more energy efficient than C4 and CAM, but less water efficient. B-Plants that produce large seeds generally produce very few, while plants that produce small seeds generally produce many of them. C- Indices of species diversity rely both on species richness and species evenness, but not on species relatedness D- Endothermic animals are better able to maintain their preferred body temperature than ectothermic animals, but expend a large amount of metabolic energy to do so. E- Organisms that specialize on a single food source may use that resource more efficiently than generalists, but risk starvation if unable to find their particular food source.arrow_forward6.3arrow_forwardTable 1.
