Question

select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. how does farming affect biodiversity? farming requires space, so it primarily contributes to dropdown. also, fertilizers used in farming have high levels of phosphorus and nitrogen, which can eventually lead to dropdown. the dropdown options include habitat loss, invasion, pollution.

Explanation:

For the first blank: Farming needs space, so it destroys natural habitats to create farmland, so "habitat loss" is correct. For the second blank: Fertilizers with phosphorus and nitrogen can cause pollution (like eutrophication in water bodies), so "pollution" is correct. The option "invasion" doesn't fit here as it's about species invasion, not related to space or fertilizer effects.

Answer:

First drop - down: habitat loss
Second drop - down: pollution
