Biodiversity occurs where a large variety of different plants and animals live in an area. The more varied the populations within the community, the greater the change for these organisms to survive. Biodiversity often measures the health of a community, biome, or ecosystem. When diverse populations are no longer sustained by an ecosystem, extinction of a species can occur. 17 Which of the following is most likely to have a positive effect on biodiversity? A Increasing people's awareness of pollution B Replanting trees and other plants in a park C Recycling glass, aluminum cans, and plastic D Pouring oil onto the ground
