Humans built dams, dikes, and levees to control water flow and flooding in the Florida Everglades. This allowed us to expand urban and agricultural areas, but it also allowed invasive species to take over and destroy habitat for native species, as well as reducing native species ability to move to find resources and reproduce. Restoration efforts are under way to allow for natural water drainage and to treat the water.
Which size impact does this human-led destruction of habitat have?
(1 point)
Responses
Medium because many species were impacted, but they are still surviving in the remaining areas.

The most appropriate response regarding the size of the impact caused by human-led destruction of habitat in the Florida Everglades is:
**Large because it has led to several significant changes, including new invasive species and loss of natives.**
This response acknowledges the extensive ecological damage caused, including the introduction of invasive species and the decline of native species, which are both significant impacts on the ecosystem.
