Removes or changes forests and prairies, leaves giant holes in the ground
Lose of Water
It causes a giant hole
It changes the composition of the surface
Plants and animals eat the extra food
Forest goes under the water
How does mining change the earths surface?
Lose of Water
It causes a giant hole to be present in that area which changes the structure of the surface there
It changes the chemical composition of the surface
Plants and animals are turned into giant holes
Forest get crowded with plants and animals
It leaves a giant hole in the ground where there may once have been a forest or a prairie where many plants and animals may once have lived
How does mining change the earth's surface?
Fire management
Fishing too much from an area
Fishes
Water management
Fire, over fishing, mining, pollution
How can living organisms affect their ecosystems?
No
Yes
Can mining be a cause of habitat loss or change?
Nature
Fisherman taking too many fish from one area
Taking too many fish from one area
Fishing
Scattering of fish
What could place a species at risk for extinction?
Fire, Fisherman, Mining and Pollution
Fire management,Natural Events,Mining,Pollution
Mining, over-fishing, fire, pollution
Habitation, over-breed, chemicals, over-feeding
Fishes
Name four things that can cause habitat loss or change.
Fishing too much from an area could result in increasing the number of fishes in that area
Some species may face extinction, and affects other living things that rely on fish for food
Fishes
It takes away too many fished causing extinction
It causes over-breeding of fishes in that area
How does over fishing effect an ecosystem?
Fisherman have taken too many fish from one area. This places the species at risk of extinction. It also affects other living things that may rely on these fish for food
Water changes
It causes the fish to migrate and other animals might migrate with them too
It reduces the number of fish and other animals may be reliant on fish too
Fishes at risk for extinction
How does fishing impact ecosystems?
Not Possible
Possible
There are many ways living organisms can affect their ecosystem. One way is by managing fire. Another method can be done by mining
Is it possible for a living organism to affect their ecosystem?
Fish increases
Extinction
Species at risk for extinction
Fish at risk for extinction
Habitation
The fish that were taken could become extinct and that would affect other living things that relied on these fish as food
What can occur if fishermen over-fish an area?
Above were just a few things that caused habitat loss or change. There are many ways in which living organisms can affect their ecosystem. In some areas, it is because of fire management. Fire is a natural event, so managing fire correctly is very important. In other areas, fisherman have taken too many fish from one area. This places the species at risk of extinction. It also affects other living things that may rely on these fish for food. The image below shows a picture of a mine. Mining changes the Earths surface. This area may once have been a forest or a prairie. Think about how many plants and animals may once have lived here. Now it is a giant hole in the ground. Pollution is also a major factor in habitat loss and change.
