The Impact Of Bees On Ecosystem

Improved Essays
I think that changes in living and nonliving things have a big impact on the species in the ecosystem around it. To prove my thought I have 3 examples. I have my map which is about how the wolves impacted its ecosystem and how to ecosystem impacted the wolves, I also have a podcast about how the bees are very important, and my last example I’m talking about is my presentation about how droughts changes the ecosystem it attacks.

My first example is my map and it shows that since the wolves came back to an ecosystem, they scared the deer away from some places which means they wouldn’t be eating the trees in those places, and since the trees weren’t being eaten as much they grew tall and that drew in more species that liked the trees, like birds, squirrels etc., so there was a lot more biodiversity once the wolves came in. Also beavers and other river animals came in, and because they build their homes in the river, it changed how the river flowed. This proves my point because it shows that once the wolves came back they affected the deer which then affected the whole ecosystem in a good way.

And without the bees, our crops and flower can’t grow as well. And since the bee population is dying down, 2 million a year, we are now realizing that bees are a keystone species and that we need them. This proves if the bees disappear, it changes how of plants are used to being pollinated and how they grow so this could mean that we don’t get the good crops we are used to and we may not even get flowers at

    Climate Change is severely affecting animals that rely on land and specific food sources. This is true because once an animals land is destroyed it removes their food source as well. For example the Giant Panda's diet revolves around bamboo. Now that climate change is ruining bamboo forests the panda is left with little to no food. This forces them to migrate from their low elevation habitats, to higher elevations like mountains.…

    Michael Heile Nelson 3 English 11 Honors April 29 2016 Honeybee Population Crisis Bees are very crucial to our society. They pollinate over $14 billion worth of crops each year (Ballaro and Warhol). With that amount of money you could buy almost 15 new Viking stadiums each year. They are so valuable to our society and if the bee population goes down, the human population will soon follow. Although many people are unaware of the shrinking bee population, scientific evidence has proven it to be a major problem.…

    There are no drastic spikes in the populations of any one species, or drops in another." For plants and animals to be working in harmony we must be sure to have the ecosystem as it is defined. In the passage "Are the Everglades Forever?", it defines an ecosystem "An ecosystem is defined as a community, characterized by the types of things (plants and animals) that live there; the type of environment around them; and the ways in which they all interact. " Animals interact in constant search for…

    I believe that changes to living and non -living parts of an ecosystem impact population within the habitat because if you take away or put something into an ecosystem you are affecting everything around you. Especially if you put in or take out a keystone species. Keystone species are animals that other animals rely on and need to grow. So if you take away an animal that everyone relys on you are hurting all the other animals.…

    The increase in levels aids in increasing the impact of global warming, leading to a more dramatic climate change (Palmer, 2016). Another impact of declining bee populations is the decimation of ecosystems and the environment. Regarding ecosystems, the disappearance of bees will topple existing food chains, leading to the decline in…

    In Science magazine, Jonas Geldmann and Juan P. González-Varo wrote a piece talking about the loss of western honey bees. It is done by compiling evidence performed by tests and other articles on the subject. They bring attention how society has grown to know that the loss of bees, or natural pollinators, has been an epidemic. They reference this to bring the attention that, “pollinators for global food security; ~75% of all globally important crops depend to some degree on pollination.” While this is true, they mention the importance because the honey bees are not the bees we should be worrying about.…

    In the Amazon, around 17% of the forest has been lost in the last 50 years, mostly due to forest conversion for cattle ranching. I think it does affect an ecosystem because if it's alive it will make more. Also if the area around them is being destroyed they can’t produce animals and possible die. There could also be excitation which would make the populations go down.…

    With the constant buzz across the country from phones and technology we sometimes miss the more important buzzes. The honey bee population in the United States has been declining at an alarming rate over the past decade. The United States should take action to help preserve the honey bee so that there doesn’t end up being a nationwide crop failure. Though many citizens don’t believe that the honey bee crisis will affect them, the reality may leave sting. With the decrease in honey bees and no one taking action, soon crops will fail and large amounts of our food sources will diminish.…

    If the population of plants decrease, food will surely decrease also. There are billions of people that have to be fed everyday, and unfortunately we rely on bees to pollinate many of our crops. A drop in crops around the world would cut off a lot of food that we need to sustain life on the planet. If bees were to disappear we would slowly start disappearing also. There is just too many people that need food to cut out all of the crops that bees pollinate.…

    I learned through my keystone species presentation that without keystone species many of the animals in the ecosystem would have to adapt to their environment differently. In my presentation I studied Killer Whales. Killer Whales controlled over many animals like fish, seals, and sea urchins all the way down to kelp. Going closer into one of the animals it controls various species of fish and sea lions. Without the killer whale which controls the population of the sea lions there wouldn’t be enough fish.…

    Beavers for example depend highly on the willows because they use them for dams and lodges. Next, the beavers provide a pond to many reptiles and amphibians. In return this increases many of different animals up and down the trophic levels. An ecosystem will become less diverse as there are changes from different trophic levels, a term called trophic cascades will begin to occur as the apex predator is eliminated from an ecosystem. With the willows being gone there is not a place for other small animals to live and eat because their served as their home.…

    One way is when the ecosystem is changed it can cause the birds to have no home. The american kestrels like to out in the open and if we change this to where there is no open areas there will be a big chance that there are not as many of these species as there is now. This is because if we start growing forests where there is open areas there will be nowhere for the american kestrel to perch or hunt. They also like the farmland. The reason they like the farmland is it is easier to find prey because they can hover over the fields and then swoop down to catch what they spot.…

    Millions of bees are perishing around the world, causing our food supply to shrink and environment being harmed drastically. Why are bees “so important” to our food supply? Well, bees are responsible for pollinating everything from strawberries, almonds, to alfalfa used to feed dairy cows. This is where the term “No Bees, No Food” comes in and why we should be aware of this drastic incline of bees in recent years.…
