Question

Wetlands support a large number of animal species. Chemical weed killers are dumped into this wetland and the aquatic plants are killed. We should expect ___________________ to be affected by the death of the plants.\

Answer 1

Answer: all the animals in and around the wetlands

Answer 2

The correct answer for the blank is animals.

The producers are always the green plants and in case of wetlands the primary producers are the aquatic plants.

The aquatic plants present in the wetland are the producers of the ecosystem present in wetland.

If we will remove the producers from the ecosystem then, all the consumers(animals) will die.
