Biology
1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

Introduction of Non-native species would be the answer. ( B )

Explanation:

Now let's break it down.

A. Competition due to overpopulation

Competition due to overpopulation, as competition of resources rises, species will fight among each other, and slowly, population will go down. But I don't see the reason of why it would cause an extinction... perhaps a decrease of population. See, once populations starts decreasing, resources will increase. And ONCE resources increase, populations starts increasing, and there goes competition. Resources decreases, populations decreases, and the whole process repeats. So I'm not quite sure whether it will cause extinction of a species.

B. Introduction of Non- native species.

So what does it mean by Non-native species?

It means that species that have no effect and doesn't exist in the ecosystem. So that will definitely not affect the population whatsoever.

C. Catastrophic Events

Well, common sense. Many people died of tsunamis, tornado and other natural disasters every year. Too many disasters can cause the population to cease.

D. Disease

This we can relate, especially the Coronavirus. Many humans died of the deadly virus. Same goes to animals. If a disease gets too deadly, population will decrease and drive the species to extinction.

So, the Answer would be B.
