In the given set of material, the main topic has centered on what causes might result in the decline in the yellow cedar population, a particular tree species in North America. While the author proposed three hypotheses, the speaker in the follow-up material cast doubt on those points in a number of ways.
The first point in the article is that insect parasites were likely to be responsible for its anticlimax as the beetle larvae have eaten its wood. However, this was questioned by the lecturer as he mentioned that all evidence has shown that yellow cedar species had chemical substance acted as an insect resistance and those attacks also have been observed to the damaged population, not healthy one.
Moreover, according to the essay, high sugar content in the cedar ingredient might attract bears to fulfill their sweet's feeding habits. Nonetheless, the orator discussed that decrease in the amount of cedar trees in both area with and without bears logically proved that they could not be the culprit.
Last but not least, the writer has stated that changes in the weather climate especially from the harsh winter to the spring caused a problem for the cedar root sensitive system and it hindered its growth. Conversely, according to the lecture, most damaged cedar trees have lived in lower elevation with higher average temperature.
