Which of these islands would likely have the most species diversity.

Biology
1 answer:
lakkis [162]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A large island near the mainland

Explanation:

A large island has a greater number of species, a greater interaction between them and a greater number of natural elements. All of this is capable of promoting biological specialization on a large scale, allowing new species to emerge more quickly than on a small island. Although a small island may also have great biodiversity, that island has fewer factors that promote the creation of new species, in addition to having fewer species interacting and creating new species.

Daniel [21]
Poaching refers to the illegal hunting of wild animals in violation of the laws which regulate hunting of wild animals.

Poaching activities include hunting and killing wild animals without licence, using illegal weapons to kill animals, killing animal out of season, etc. All these activities can lead to drastic reduction in the population of animal specie to the extent that the animals become extinct. A good example of an over utilized animal specie is passenger pigeon.
