Question 13 • Science 7 B (M12 25/26 S2)

Which human-induced change results in increased competition caused by an initial increase in the number of organisms in a habitat?

Answer
A
non-sustainable harvesting
B
nonnative species introduction
C
ozone layer depletion
D
mass extinction

Explanation

Introducing a nonnative species can cause the number of organisms in a habitat to increase at first. The newcomers and native species may compete for limited food, space, and other resources, so competition increases. Non-sustainable harvesting and mass extinction generally reduce populations, while ozone depletion does not directly add organisms to a habitat.
