Answer:

The Nigerian environment like every other natural environment had at a time in history been a victim of human exploitation. At that stage of national development, the quest was primarily for the survival of man. In order to ensure sustainable growth, development, and the provision of the basic needs of man it is now certain that the exploitation of natural resources must pave way for the sustainable exploitation or conservation and protection of these resources for the benefit of present and future generations. Although the idea of conservation is probably as old as the human species, the use of the word in its present context is relatively recent. Over the years conservation has acquired many connotations! to some it means the protection of wild nature, to others the sustained production of useful materials from the resources of the earth.

Answer and Explanation:

The role of Science in "Natural Vegetation and Wildlife"

Biosphere: Natural vegetation exists only in the biosphere. The narrow zone of contact between the lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere; in which life exists is called biosphere.

Ecosystem: The living beings are inter-related and interdependent on each other for survival. This life supporting system is called ecosystem.

Importance of Natural Vegetation: Vegetation provides shelter to animals and provides us with timber and many other forest produce. Plants also produce oxygen when they make food and oxygen is the gas we breathe. Plants protect soil from degradation. Plants help in recharging the groundwater.

Wildlife: Animals, birds, insects as well as the aquatic life forms comprise the wildlife. We get meat and leather from animals. Honey bees provide us with honey. Insects are the major pollinators and thus help not only the plants but also the human beings. Some animals play the role of scavengers and clean the dead remains of animals. All animals play important role in maintaining the balance in the ecosystem.
