Summary Introduction

To determine: The way in which reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone National Park will ultimately result in a more varied and lush plant consumption.

Introduction: For the regulation of various ecosystems, there are two regulatory processes, namely bottom-up process and top-down process. The bottom-up processes are dependent upon the interrelated series of organisms in a food web through which energy flows in an ecosystem. The top-down processes are mainly the regulatory processes of the ecosystem that function by the interactions of trophic level.

Summary Introduction

To determine: Whether this is an example of a bottom-up or top-down process.

San Andreas Transform Boundary Plate Motion The geologic map below of southern California shows the position of the famous San Andreas Fault, a transform plate boundary between the North American Plate (east side) and the Pacific Plate (west side). The relative motion between the plates is indicated by the half arrows along the transform plate boundary (i.e., the Pacific Plate is moving to the northwest relative to the North American Plate). Note the two bodies of Oligocene volcanic rocks (labeled Ov) on the map in the previous page located along either side of the San Andreas Fault. These rocks are about 23.5 million years old and were once one body of rock. They have been separated by displacement along the fault. 21. Based on the offset of these volcanic rocks, what is the average annual rate of relative plate motion in cm/yr?
