Answer:

The giraffe’s niche is to graze on foliage in open woodlands, helping maintain the open woodland habitat. It also has a mutualistic relationship with oxpeckers, which eat parasites from its body.

Describe animal interactions that affect populations in the tundra ecosystem.

Answer:

Predation, competition for limited food and shelter, migration, and hibernation all affect animal populations in the tundra. During the short summer, abundant plants and insects support more activity and reproduction, while harsh winters reduce available food and cause some animals to migrate or hibernate.

10

Describe the habitat of the giraffe.

Answer:

Giraffes live in the African savanna, which consists of vast grasslands and open woodlands. Their habitat is characterized by a warm climate and a abundance of acacia trees, which provide their primary source of food. These areas allow giraffes to have a wide field of vision to spot predators and enough space to roam freely.
