Homeowners have been encouraged to learn how to identify invasive plants and to remove them if they find them. The most likely reason for removing invasive plants is to (1) allow only one type of native plant to grow (2) preserve biodiversity (3) eliminate unfamiliar food sources (4) increase the rate of ecological succession

Conservation Biology

The study of how to prevent the loss of biological diversity on the planet is called conservation. Biological diversity, also termed biodiversity, consists of various life forms found in a specific location or across the entire planet, including ecosystems, species, populations, and genes. Conservation thus aims to protect the diversity of life at all levels of biological organization.
