Loss of diversity leads to loss of ecological stability.Explain.
Answers
Hey mate!
I am here with your answer!
Loss of biodiversity has many long term effects. Biodiversity provides various goods - such as plants and animals - that individuals need in order to earn an income and secure sustainable livelihoods. If ecosystems deteriorate to an unstable level, the resulting problems can be very expensive, economically, to reverse.
Loss of biodiversity can result in loss of balance in the ecosystem due to depletion of natural resources and increase in deforestation. This had led to imbalance in food chains, loss of natural habitats of animals and birds, increase of pollution, wide change in climate etc.
Hope this will help you!
yes, if the diversity of organisms is disturbed then the food chain, nutrient cycling and population of certain species will be affected. for example, if tigers are lost then the deers would be abundant and this would lead in instability and more intraspecific competition.if some microorganisms are lost then it would affect the breakdown of detritus and also nutrient cycling. Also if a species is lost co-evolving population along with it is also lost.
