Answer 1

In an ecosystem with low biodiversity, the removal of a species will (1 point) disturb the ecosystem because another species will not be able to replace it.

This is primarily due to the limited variety of species that can fulfill similar ecological roles, making the ecosystem more vulnerable to disturbances such as species loss.
