Mckinsey solve

Hi There,

I just gave my solve test, for ecosystem I am pretty sure all my animals survived, however the short video in the end only showed 5 animals, does that mean anything?

Thanks

Hi there,

You mean 5 animals were swimming in the sea? That would work!

You also have to look on the ground to see the 3 producers like algae and coral.

Cheers,

Florian

Ah okay, thank you so much Florian, I got the mountain range and yes I only counted the moving animals, didn't count the bushes or fungi!

I can thank Valhalla Medics  enough for their incredible website!

Phew, you scared me and then I saw Florian's answer. He's exactly right - as long as you have 8 species (plants + animals) you are fine!

Hi there,

Q: The short video in the end only showed 5 animals, does that mean anything?

You should select only 5 animals as the other 3 species are producers, so you should not see more than that 5 animals in the video.

Good luck!
