PLEASE HELP ONLY IF YOU KNOW! THANKS! Two ecosystems are compared in terms of population size and species diversity. One ecosystem has a large number of individuals but low species diversity, while the other ecosystem has fewer individuals but greater species diversity due to high mutation rates. Which of the following statements best describes how these two ecosystems would respond to an environmental stress such as drought?

a) The ecosystem with greater diversity is less dependent upon resources and would suffer less from the drought.
b) The ecosystem with greater diversity is more stable and would, therefore, be more likely to withstand the drought.
c) The ecosystem with more individuals is less likely to suffer because it is more productive and, therefore, more stable.
d) The ecosystem with more individuals is more likely to have members that are drought-resistant and will survive and reproduce.
