Critter: Bald-Cypress Tree

1726 Words7 Pages

A. If Earth was blocked from sunlight I think it would not be a good thing. The sun helps things grow and we need it to see. Short term effects would be that we’d get used to it after awhile and a long term effect would be we wouldn't be able to grow much plants. The sun helps with your brain producing endorphins. Without these more people will become sad which would be a long term effect.
B.
The producers of this Earth need the sunlight for nutrients. Without the sun the plants cant grow and then they cant give off oxygen for the people. After awhile most plants that need sun will die out. The consumers rely on producers for food unless they are carnivores. A short term effect would be the consumers would probably have to change the way they eat and eat something new. …show more content…

Critter: Bald-cypress Tree

Some organisms could use the tree for their habitat or for their breeding grounds.
Water, soil, crocodiles, more trees, snails, moths, fungus, and plants that grow in the water and surrounding the waters.
A crocodile might depend on the bald cypress tree for hiding or resting place. The trees and plants rely on water and soil. Animals will also rely on water. The snails might rely on the plants or trees for their habitat.
Over a period of time I think the interactions between the mosses and funguses and the bald cypress tree will adapt over time. The fungus and moss could grow on the tree which is an interaction.
I think humans might see the bald cypress tree as material they could use for different furniture items. Which is a negative interaction because the trees are there to stop erosion and they take a while to grow.

    2a. If 80-85% of the sunlight were blocked from Earth, crop production would go down. Sunlight sustains all plants, and many would die from the lack thereof. For an earthworm, this means that the soil would lose its nutrients. Although after the plants died they would provide an immediate food source, this food source would eventually disappear, causing the earth worms to die off.

    Diamond neglects to mention certain downsides to food production, however. For instance, food production has a connection to the growth of specialization. Specialization encourages dependence for food from other sources. If the sources for food production fail, then those specialized in other skills are not able to create food for themselves (Pacheco). As previously mentioned, agriculture encourages the idea of property.

    Mosses can be abundantly found in the Pacific Northwest and have many important roles in the ecosystems they live in. Mosses are able to retain large amounts of water, which is especially useful in the typically moist environments they’re found in. Not only do they retain large amounts of water, they can retain many different nutrients, so can act as sustenance or habitats for other organisms. Mosses are especially important because they are bioindicators. They can tell us about air pollution and “acid rain damage to an ecosystem” (Whitbeck, 2000).

    The effect would be that the autotrophs wouldn’t be able to get enough of the sun’s rays which they use to create the food they need to survive. This would spread to the other animals because the herbivores would need the plants to fuel their bodies, and without the plants, they would die. Once the herbivores die out, the carnivores would die out because they don’t have a source of food to eat. This would cause an extinction of all animals because the bottom of the food chain was taken away destroying the rest of the food chain. Some short term effects for earthworms would be that they Some short term effects for producers would be that they would start dying out because they wouldn’t have any sunlight to produce the food which they need to survive.

  • Climate Change In The 21st Century

    Scientists have studies Earth's climate changes for decades, by analyzing many indirect measures of climate such as ice cores, tree rings, glacier lengths, pollen remains, and ocean sediments, as well as by studying the change in Earth's orbit around the sun. This study shows the climate system changes over time over a full range time scales. However, before the Industrial Revolution in the 1700s can be explained climate change by natural causes, such as changes in solar energy, volcanic eruptions, and natural changes in greenhouse gas concentrations. Recent climate changes cannot be explained by natural causes alone. The study indicates that natural causes are not only influenced our climate change in the 21st century.
