Answer:

Avoid fragmenting the forest by building the new homes together on one side of the forest

Explanation:

<em>Fragmentation of forest involves breaking of large continuous forests into smaller, ecologically less diverse units</em>. This often happen as a result of human factors such as road construction, agriculture, building construction, and so on.

Forest fragmentation has several effects including, reduction in forest's health, degradation of habitats loss of biodiversity, among others.

Hence, the best mode of action is for the urban planner to build the homes clustered together on one side of the forest to avoid fragmenting the forest.

When the comb jelly, Mnemiopsis leidyi, was introduced into the Black Sea, its population exploded to 500 comb jellies per cubic
nikitadnepr [17]

The answer is invasive species.


Invasive species are species that are not native to specific ecosystem, but they have a capability to spread widely through the ecosystem, This way they can threaten native species of the ecosystem or cause environmental harm. 

<span>After being introduced into the Black Sea, they greatly affect local ecosystem. In the new area, they have no natural predators and are able to spread. If they spread beyond the area they are introduced, they become invasive species which can overgrow native biotopes and are a great threat to the local biodiversity. This could lead to the extinction of some native species.</span>
