Detailed explanation-1: -Roads are often built through forests for industrial purposes or as land is developed for residential and commercial needs. How would road construction through a forest most likely affect the ecosystem? Non-native species would replace native species.
Detailed explanation-2: -Road construction and expansion result in loss of wildlife habitat by transforming natural habitats to pavement, dirt tracks, and cleared roadsides or right-of-ways. Some wildlife are more vulnerable to habitat loss than others.
Detailed explanation-3: -An ecosystem is made up of animals, plants and bacteria as well as the physical and chemical environment they live in.
Detailed explanation-4: -Catastrophic events, such as deadly hurricanes, tornadoes, forest fires, or floods, can decrease biodiversity by killing a species or harming an ecosystem. Human activity can also cause a loss of biodiversity by displacing species from their natural habitat or killing organisms.
Detailed explanation-5: -Ecology is the study of the relationships between living organisms, including humans, and their physical environment; it seeks to understand the vital connections between plants and animals and the world around them.
