Final answer:

The local extinction of the Mountain lion can disrupt the ecosystem's food chain, leading to cascading effects on various species and vegetation.


Explanation:

The ecosystem will be affected if the Mountain lion goes locally extinct by disrupting the food chain and leading to changes in population dynamics.

Evidence: The disappearance of a top predator like the Mountain lion can cause a trophic cascade, impacting the populations of prey species such as deer, which may overgraze vegetation.

Scientific Reasoning: This disruption can have cascading effects on vegetation, soil health, and other animal species in the ecosystem.
