(a) Taking one example each of habitat loss and fragmentation, explain are two responsible for biodiversity loss.
(b) Explain two different ways of biodiversity conservation.
(a) Habitat loss—Amazon rain forest destroyed for soya beans cultivation for growing grass land, for grazing cattle/ colonisation of Pacific islands-extinction of 2000 species of native birds.
(b) Ex situ,Threatened organism are taken out from the natural habitat and placed in special setting with care and protected ,e.g., Zoological park/ botanical garden/wild safari.
In situ,Threatened organisms are conserved in their natural habitat e.g. National park/Biosphere reserves.
