Question
if a large wetland were drained and the government built new farmland in its place, what type of habitat loss would that be? a degradation b pollution c fragmentation d destruction
Habitat destruction occurs when a natural habitat is replaced by a human - made one. Draining a wetland and building farmland in its place is an example of complete removal of the original habitat. Pollution involves introduction of harmful substances, fragmentation is breaking of habitat into smaller pieces, and degradation is a decline in habitat quality rather than complete replacement.
