Self-study
Some species are called "indicator species" because the loss of a population of such a species serves as an early warning of problems arising from pollution. █████████████████ ████████ ███ ███████ ██ █████████ ████ ████████████ ████ ████ ██ █████████ ████████ ███ █████████████████ █████ ██ █████████ ██ ████ ██████████ ███ ████ ██ █ ██████████ ██ █████████ ██ ███ ██████ ██████ ████████ ██ ██████████ █████ ██ ██████ █████████████ ████████████ ████ ███ ████ ██ █████ █ ██████ ██ ███ ███████ █████████ ██ ██ ██████████ ██ ████ ████████ █████ ██ ███████ ██████ ██ ███ ██████ ████
Summarize Argument: Phenomenon-Hypothesis
A decreased population of an an indicator species shouldn’t always be attributed to pollution because there is an alternative cause (the ecosystem naturally evolving).
Identify Conclusion
The conclusion identifies a potential misinterpretation: “environmentalists would be misguided if they attributed the loss of a population to pollution in all cases.”
