The Mississippi River Delta wetlands ecosystem is home to a large number of fish, birds, and other aquatic organisms. During the

last century, this ecosystem has seen a decrease in wetland areas and species diversity due to land development, agriculture, and flooding. Conservation groups have been working to reconnect the Mississippi River with its flood plain and restore lost wetlands. One result of restoring wetland areas in this ecosystem would be
A) an increase in a biotic factors that would cause organisms to develop new adaptations

B) the development of an ecosystem that will prevent invasive species from settling there

C) an increase in the carrying capacity of the ecosystem for wetland organisms

D) to prevent the organisms that live in this ecosystem from competing for food and shelter

Answer: C) An increase in the carrying capacity of the ecosystem for wetland organisms.

Explanation:

The wetlands are the ecosystem that are developed when a water from any of the source like ocean, river, lakes, snow melting and rainfall get deposited in the shallow regions of the land. The water in such region may remain for either temporarily or seasonally.  

According to the given situation, the process of restoration of wetlands will help in increasing the carrying capacity of the wetland ecosystem. This is because of the fact that the organisms which are capable to survive in wetland ecosystem may experience disturbance due to human interventions. But with the increase in area and supply of water from the river the carrying capacity of the ecosystem will increase. The carrying capacity is the number of members of the population of species which an ecosystem can allow to survive.

kirill [66]

The biodiversity will decrease due to an increase in pollution is the effect will have on the biodiversity on the river ecosystem.

Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Biodiversity is the actual collection of total amounts of flora and fauna present in a particular ecosystem. The river ecosystem consists of the aquatic plants, the aquatic animals like fishes,etc and even the surrounding land plants and animals, who utilize the river water for their living.

The inclusion of the polluted sewage of the surrounding area into the river directly mixes several chemicals to the water, which are potentially harmful for all the animals living there. This leads to destruction of the flora and fauna of both water and lands surrounding them. This hampers the biodiversity of the water as well as surrounding land.
