Keystone Species

Keystone Species:
A keystone species is a species that has a large effect on its environment and plays a crucial role to the way an ecosystem functions. The photo is a photo of a bee; the bee in the picture is a keystone species. The bee is a keystone species because bees have a very important role in the world regarding agriculture. Bees are important when it comes to pollinating our crops and plants, without bees we would lose a massive amount of crops. This loss of crops would then lead to hunger, loss of species, and many other negative things. Therefore, the photo is indeed a photo of a keystone species, a bee.
