Human Impact on the Environment

Question 7 • 2026 Summer 305 CR_2002070-M/J Comprehensive Science 2

Which situation is an example of a human-induced environmental change affecting a population?

Answer
A
Blue jays no longer live in a forest because the trees in the forest were cut down.
B
A volcanic eruption killed grasses that were growing within a few miles of the volcano.
C
Floods from a storm forced many white-tailed deer to move to a new habitat.
D
A fisher caught a few different species of fish that live in an ocean habitat.

Explanation

Cutting down the forest trees is an action caused by people, and it changes the habitat where blue jays live. Without the trees, the blue jays may no longer be able to live in that forest. The volcanic eruption, storm floods, and fish caught by a fisher are not the human-caused habitat change described in choice A.
