The correct answer is option C, that is, have a wider range of environments.  

It has been known that geographic isolation is a general way for the initiation of the process of speciation, like the rise of mountains, rivers changing course, migration of organisms, continental drift, due to this what was once a steady population gets differentiated into two or more kinds of smaller populations.  

A mountain range, due to distinctions in temperature and precipitation as a result of different altitudes, can lead to a higher rate of speciation. Due to these differences, a single mountain range can exhibit an enormous array of biodiversity and climate zones.

How would the biodiversity and biomass of an ecosystem, change over time as ecological succession occurs? Give an example as par
DedPeter [7]
The biodiversity would change over time through ecological succession.  This can be done many ways.  One way would be through a damaging event, such as a forest fire or flood.  Then, a pioneer species would start growing.  A pioneer species would then lead to increased biodiversity in both antibiotic and biotic factors, therefore strengthening the ecosystem even more. 

I hope this helps!! Can I have Brainliest, please? :)
