Consider a field of wildflowers that are only pollinated by bees. If there were a fungal disease that attacked bees, explain in 2-3 sentences what you think would happen to the wildflower field and why.
If there were a fungal disease that attacked bees, the wildflower field would suffer as there would be a decrease in the number of bees available to pollinate the flowers. This would lead to a decrease in the overall health and diversity of the wildflower population, potentially leading to a decline in the number of plant species in the ecosystem. Moreover, the ecosystem could become imbalanced as other organisms, such as predators who feed on pollinators, struggle to find food, exacerbating the impacts of the disease.
