Use the drop-down menus below to provide a claim that can be made about trees that release seeds living in floodplain ecosystems based on these data.
The graph shows that the numbers of severe flooding events have been
over time.
If this trend continues, the numbers of seed-releasing tree species living in floodplain ecosystems
is likely to
v. This would result because the seeds released by the trees would
grow in the
M soils. This change in the number of trees and
the species abundance of trees in the floodplain would result in a
and
v ecosystem.
