Question

what does the removal of one member of a population or an entire population of any species result in?
ramifications up and down the food chain
immediate improved ecosystem balance
enhanced biodiversity within the ecosystem
eventual increased population of predators

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In an ecosystem, species are interconnected. Removing a population disrupts these connections. For example, if a prey species is removed, its predators may lack food (down - chain effect). If a predator is removed, its prey may over - reproduce (up - chain effect). Biodiversity is likely to decrease (not enhance) as a species is lost. Ecosystem balance is disrupted (not immediately improved). Predator populations would likely decrease (not increase) if their prey is removed.

Answer:

ramifications up and down the food chain
