During a dry season, a farmer can cause an environmental change by regularly watering crops. This environmental change can effect the stability of the field's ecosystem by causing the ecosystem to become
a
less stable, as the crops in the field outnumber the native grasses in the field.
b
more stable, as the crops in the field receive too much water.
c
more stable, as the crops in the field do not dehydrate and die off.
d
less stable, as the crops in the field receive more water than they would with rain.
a) less stable, as the crops in the field outnumber the native grasses in the field.
Watering the crops can lead to an imbalance in the ecosystem by favoring the growth of the crops over the native grasses. This can disrupt the natural balance of the ecosystem and potentially lead to a decrease in biodiversity and stability.
