10) What are some ways we can reduce our impact on biodiversity?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1) A classification is a division or category in a system which divides things into groups or types.

2)The science of classifying living things is called taxonomy.

3) kingdom

    phylum

    class 

    order      

    family

   genus

   species

4) Living things are divided into five kingdoms: animal, plant, fungi, protist and monera. 

5) -Producers are organisms that make their own food.

- Consumers are organisms that need to eat other organisms to obtain energy.

An invasive species can be any kind of living organism—an amphibian (like the cane toad), plant, insect, fish, fungus, bacteria, or even an organism's seeds or eggs—that is not native to an ecosystem and causes harm. They can harm the environment, the economy, or even human health.examples of invasive plant species include the kudzu vine, Andean pampas grass, English ivy, Japanese knotweed, and yellow starthistle. Animal examples include the New Zealand mud snail, feral pig, European rabbit, grey squirrel, domestic cat, carp, and ferret

8) the major threats to biodiversity are: habitat loss, overharvesting, and introduction of exotic species

9)Pollution is the introduction of harmful materials into the environment. These harmful materials are called pollutants. Pollutants damage the quality of air, water, and land.Air pollution can damage crops and trees in a variety of ways. Ground-level ozone can lead to reductions in agricultural crop and commercial forest yields, reduced growth and survivability of tree seedlings, and increased plant susceptibility to disease, pests and other environmental stresses (such as harsh weather).

10) -destruction, degradation and fragmentation of habitats.

-reduction of individual survival and reproductive rates through exploitation, pollution and introduction of alien species.

Explanation:

hope this helped

Answer:A living thing must be able to move, grow, go through metabolic processes (cellular respiration for example), affect their environment, be able to pass genetic information and be able to reproduce. And, of course, should breathe.
