Plants, bison, elk, and wolves are all members of an ecosystem. The bison and elk are both primary consumers in this ecosystem, while the wolves are a predator. Over time, the bison completely disappear. Give an example of how the ecosystem may respond to this change, and explain how this relates to both resiliency and biodiversity. max 2 sentences and max 50 words and make it simple words and like a 7th grader wrote it

Without bison, there may be an increase in grass and plant growth because there are less animals eating them. This shows how ecosystems can adapt to changes, but it may also decrease biodiversity since there is one less type of animal in the ecosystem.
