Question

I always give medals.

Why would a diverse population be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion?

Answer 1

How do invasive species change the diversity index?

Answer 2

A diverse population would be more resistent because, the number of species can help with the predators, resistent to desiece because of high tolerance, this diversity helps them out-compete other invasive species.

Answer 3

okay thanks.. ill give u a medal if you can answer the second question as well

Answer 4

Inavasive species invade so in doing so it adds diversity to an ecosystem.

Answer 5

but why does it add diversity.

Answer 6

Because it introduces more living species.

Answer 7

i need a much more explained answer. like u had in the first one.. a good detailed explination is what works with me.

Answer 8

Okay then that is what I will give you. It all depends on the ability of the inavasive species to adopt a new territory. If they adapt well to it then the diversity index species would then decline and the diversity of the inavasive species would increase. Is that better?

Answer 9

that is much better thanks.

Answer 10

No problemo!
