1. The bald eagle is a predator. They serve to keep the population of small to medium game in check. Most of their prey are herbivores. If the don't kill the herbivores, then the herbivores could devour all plant life. Other species that feed on plants would most likely be effected by this occurrence. This may not be what your teacher is asking for, but i hope it helps!
2. Well, without the bald eagle to eat it's prey, their prey would keep producing because their would be nothing to eat them (except for their other predators). Then if those things became over-populated they would eat plants and vegetation. Then their would be no room for people to live and no oxygen for us that plant life gives us.
