NOTE: The image you need to see in order to answer this question is attachedA developer owns the property encompassing the three habitats above.  By law, one of the habitats must be left intact to satisfy the zoning laws. The developer works with an environmental engineer to choose which of the habitats should be saved.  The environmental engineer suggests that Site C should be saved.  Which of the following choices best justifies this decision?Responses  A)   Site C has greater species richness and species evenness than either Site A or Site B.  This will promote the maximum sustainability for future generations of animals.     B)   Site C is tied with Site A for greatest species richness, but unlike Site A, it has representative species from all 3 of the sites within it.     C)  Site C not only contains the greatest number of species, it also has the greatest genetic diversity within each species.     D)   Site C has more unique species in it than either Site A or Site B

Question 3 Part 1: Biological invasions have proliferated in recent decades because of increased rates at which species are transported beyond their native range, primarily due to what process: A. human actions B. natural selection C. natural disturbance regimes D. global climate change       Question 3 Part 2: Many invasive species come from industries based on the trade of (often) non-native species, including horticulture and the pet trade.  Regulations targeting these industries that would successfully reduce the incidence of new biological invasions would most likely focus on which invasion stage from the framework of Blackburn et al. (2011)? A. Introduction B. Transport C. Establishment D. Spread

Below is an image of three warbler species that all play a similar role in their community and occupy a similar habitat. So instead they occupy different niches. Use these images and the information from lecture to explain what has happened to these species and why this change would be necessary.
