Question

First habitat is cleared to build a new shopping complex. What does this scenario represents?

Answer 1

This situation describes a "loss in biodiversity due to human activity" and I would also say that it's a "loss in biodiversity due to an invasive species". Of course because humans have purposefully tore down the habitat to make room for shopping, it's a human activity. However, in the grand scheme of things, humans ARE an invasive species. We take over wherever and whenever we please without regard to the surrounding.

Answer 2

I think it should be D. A loss in biodiversity due to catastrophic event.
