Explanation:

Biodiversity measures the variety of organisms in an ecosystem. Allowing hunters to hunt alligators depletes the alligator population which decreases biodiversity. Legalizing monkey hunting depletes the population which decreases bio diversity. Deforestization rids animals of their habitats which massively decreases biodiversity due to the plants, trees, and animals destroyed in the process. That and the fact that there will be less sites for nesting and homes for the animals which will decrease biodiversity even more over time. It's all connected.

Protecting a species conserves the population and ensures the safety of the animal especially from human interference. This allows the animal (specifically the black bear) to survive in its habitat unharmed and allows it to play its role in the ecosystem and contribute to biodiversity.

ask your friends for what they got then copy it down if you don't have any friends which is fine than google it or pay the teacher
