Animals can help plants reproduce in a variety of ways. Which behavior can end up being more harmful than helpful?
1 answer
One behavior that can end up being more harmful than helpful is overgrazing by herbivores. When herbivores consume too many plants in a particular area, it can prevent the plants from reproducing effectively through seed dispersal and can also lead to a decline in overall plant biodiversity. This can have cascading effects on the ecosystem, impacting other animals and their habitats.
