What are the benefits of multi-management protected areas as compared with strictly protected areas? Select all that apply. They are more likely to benefit local people and thus earn local support They can contain many of their original species They often integrate a larger network of surrounding protected areas There is usually no conflict about the sustainable use of resources in these areas They are easier to manage because the local communities are integrated in the management process They are often much larger than other types of protected areas
Give two examples of the benefits gained by theintroduction of nonnative species. Give two examplesof the harmful effects of nonnative species that havebeen introduced deliberately and two examples of thesame for accidentally introduced species. Explain whyprevention is the best way to reduce threats frominvasive species and list four proposed ways to implement this strategy
What is the relationship between a pioneer species and primary succession? A pioneer species is an invasive species that causes areas to experience primary succession. There is not a relationship between a pioneer species and primary succession. The pioneer species only occurs in areas of secondary succession. A pioneer species is important in an area of primary succession because it can grow and thrive in areas where most other species cannot. A pioneer species only inhabits areas of primary succession.

Name some ways that preserving biodiversity conflicts with human interests.
Why is a specialist more likely to be an endangered species? because they are considered invasive species because they are more valuable on the black market because their needs are only met in a few ways because their needs can be met in many different ways
