What might happen to the other organisms if disease were to kill off one of the teriary consumers in the food web?
If you killed off a teriary consumer then the population of the animals they used to feed on might rise. If there was competition with another teriary consumer, then those might rise in numbers as well since they are no longer competing for the same food rescource. Since there will be a larger population of secondary consumers, then the number of other teriary consumers that feed on them will rise.
What would happen to the environment if there were no consumers?
if all secondary consumers or predators will be killed.the population of herbivores will increase.there will be no living things.
What happends if your body temperature reaches 117?
A temp that high would fry a person's brain--they would die long, long before it ever reached 117F. A temp of 101 generally means the person is very ill. Over 103 to 105F means a person is in a medical crisis, could go into seizures, and can die if temp is not brought down quickly.
What do the Producers Provide?
Producers in an ecosystem create biomass from inorganic substances (nutrients from chemicals present in the soil, air, and the energy from sunlight). Once these substances have been created and incorporated into the producers themselves, they are passed along the food chain into the consumers. Without producers, consumers would inevitably die off from lack of nutrients.
How nan decomposers help the consumers and producers stay alive?
Decomposers break down dead organisms, which turns them into fertilizers that can aid plant growth and return the energy to the food chain, and thus provides more food and energy for animals (consumers). When the plants and animals die, they themselves are decomposed, and the cycle begins again.
