Why would a diverse community be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer and explanation;

-A diverse community would be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion because it would be a bigger diversity of genes, which means that the chance of disease would be more likely to spread in a different area than in a diverse population.

-Diversity is expected to increase the resilience of ecosystems. A diverse community would be more resistant to disease because of simple biology. The more sources for possible resistance the better the heterogeneous pool will be at resisting disease.

-High diversity strengthens a community and prevents invasion of the introduced predator. After a gradual loss of native species, the introduced predator can escape control and the system collapses into a contrasting, invaded, low-diversity state.
