Ecosystems: Biodiversity:Question 3 Scientists perform an experiment by removing a single species from two different grasslands. One of the grasslands has a high amount of biodiversity. The other grassland has a low amount of biodiversity. Which community would experience the least amount of disruption from this change? Select one: Both grassland would be heavily disrupted by the loss of the species. The grassland with a high amount of biodiversity. The grassland with a low amount of biodiversity. Neither grassland would be expected to experience a disruption trom this change.
