Answer: all of the above

Explanation:

Conservation biogeography is a relatively new academic subject. It deals with the application of the knowledge of biogeography with that of the conservation biology.

It deals with the observation of ecological and biophysical factors that affects the distribution of biotic community. It also studies about how evolutionary mechanisms change the species and their distribution due to factors such as climate change, species interaction, plate tectonics and events or processes.

Distribution and effects of both endemic and invasive species.: The conservation biogeography deals with the distribution of endemic and invasive species in region of their association and their effect on the environment.

Impacts of rapid climate change on biodiversity.: The effect of climate can be positive for the conservation of biodiversity or it can be drastic and destroy the biodiversity of the region.

Implementation of conservation planning and establishment of protected areas .: Certain geographical regions of the world are rich in biodiversity hence, planning should be done so as to protect these regions.

Thus all of the above is the correct option.

Name the reason why languages become extinct.​
lesya [120]

Answer:

From a state of endangerment, many languages become extinct. When the speakers of a language are exterminated as what happened to Tasmanians in the 19th century, several languages suddenly died. Another reason for the extinction is the pressure exerted on a community to incorporate with a more powerful or larger group.
