49. In what way can deforestation, building of dams, conversion of forest to agricultural lands and urban development could cause species to decrease in number which, eventually, could lead to extinction? A. They pollute the environment causing species to die. B. They cause widespread of diseases which may lead to mass extinction. C. They cause widespread of diseases which may lead to mass extinction. D. They cause widespread of diseases which may lead to mass extinction. 50.Assume two habitats have the same number of species of birds. The first habitat is predominantly one species of bird, with just a few birds of the other species. The second habitat has equal number of all the different bird species found in habitat 1. Will they have the same biodiversity index? If yes, why? If not, which will have the higher biodiversity index, and why? A. Yes, Lonouse they have eyu. B. Yes, they will have the same biodiversity " species. C. No, habitat 1 has a higher diversity because it is predominantly ui. index depends on the most number of counts of one species of the organisms f bird. Diversity cammiunity. D. No, habitat 2 has a higher diversity because, aside from having the same number of species of birds as habitat 1, it also has equal numbers of each species. Species richness and species evenness are both measures of biodiversity es richness and species evenness. *Use they have the same number of
