Part A: Invertebrate Variation

Bumblebees’ way of living and the way they are structured is crucial to their survival and existence in any of their given habitats. They have hairs that are very special to them, and they are arranged in a certain way to form pollen in a sort of basket on their hind legs. These give them the chance to carry and move large baskets or clumps of pollen. These bees can go around the many flowers while carrying a large amount of pollen in their hind legs before having to return to their hive. Their pollen will be created into “bee bread,” which is pollen or honey used as their food. Active from early spring through late fall, these bumblebees need a variety of nectar-producing flowers so that food for food to be accessible for all stages of the bee’s life.

Part 2: Invasive Plant Species

Dandelions are native to Eurasia and only there till the mid-1600s when European settlers brought the dandelion, also scientifically known as Taraxacum officinal, to eastern America. That being where the flower cultivated their gardens for food and medicine, now it still spreads across the continents and Canada as a weed. This plant has flourished here because its buds grow from the highest area of the root, where the peddles form a tight crown-like shape. It is injuring our ecosystem by taking over areas needed for native plants to grow, and once they are there, it is hard to get rid of them. Methods to take charge of dandelions are to stop the proliferation when dandelions are not yet flourished and turned into flowers, attack them when they are still seedlings if possible. You may also sweep tillage and disking or pull out all in the area by root. Some stores sell weed killers, and you can sift this through the weeded and infected area even after pulling out the weeds present.
