Answer 1

a. pollution and succession

because pollution can be spread all over while the other suggestions can only destroy a small part.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer would be C.poaching and habitat loss

Biodiversity refers to the variety of life (both flora and fauna) present in a specified area or all over the world.

The main causes of loss of biodiversity are:

• Loss of habitat and fragmentation
• Overexploitation
• Invasive species
• Pollution

Poaching refers to the illegal hunting or capturing of animals. For example, elephants were killed for tusks, tigers were killed for fur or skin et cetera. It comes under over-exploitation of natural resources.

Due to overpopulation and increasing demands, natural habitats have been clearing at a very fast rate for purposes like agriculture, construction of houses, building, dams et cetera.

They both are reducing biodiversity at a very fast rate.
