a. Plants? -Squirrels, Insects,Pronghorn, other grazers and other small rodents.
b. Snakes? -Raptor and Badger.
c. Insects? -Bats, Lizards and other small reptiles
d. Mountain Lions? No animal eats the Mountain Lion.

2.

4.
- The effect of the Mesquite trees has on the eco system is the efficient of gathering water. The problem is that they take too much watr, that the plants cannot germinate anymore. But, the leaves can be eaten and they are also put into seed pods, which can be eaten by animals. Also, they put nutrients back into the soil.
