Question

The Serengeti plains are part of the African savanna ecosystem and are home to a variety of different species of plants and animals. The Serengeti plains experience a seven-month period of seasonal drought each year, during which the ecosystem receives only four inches of rain and the availability of some resources becomes very scarce. Which type of limiting factors does the seasonal drought in the Serengeti plains affect?

Answer 1

density- independent factors

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Water is the limiting factor that the Serengeti plains affect.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the explanation, Serengeti plains experience a seven-month drought during which only 4 inches of rain is received.

This is a limiting factor that maimes the growth and spread of organisms across the plain.

Due to less amounts of rainfall, there shall be minimal growth of vegetation, this in turn shall lead to loess supply of food for organisms and hence higher mortality rate and low birth rate.
