Question
some organisms are very specific in where they can live and what they will eat. these organisms have a very specific, or narrow, niche and are known as specialists. which is true about these species? they are more likely to survive great changes in their environment. they are more likely to become extinct.
Specialist species have a narrow niche, meaning they are highly adapted to specific environmental conditions and resources. If the environment changes significantly (e.g., due to habitat loss, climate change, or introduction of new competitors/predators), they cannot easily switch to new habitats or food sources. Generalist species (with broad niches) can adapt more easily as they have more options for living and feeding. Since specialist species lack this adaptability, they are at a higher risk of extinction when faced with environmental changes.
