An increase in biodiversity generally causes

The increase in biodiversity causes Latitude, altitude, productivity, spatial heterogeneity, size, age, and disturbance regime

There will be an increase in terms of population and age of animal and plant species in a certain area. These factors will make it more diverse for some of the animals and plants. However, this will also cause a shift in the altitudal and latitudal gradients of the certain space.

increase soil erosion                                             reduce soil erosion

cattle grazing                                                         hydroseeding

deforestation                                                         contour plowing

                                                                                planting vegetation

plant roots basically hold the top soil

together and stop soil erosion because

in such situation top soil is not removed

during flood but cattle grazing causes

soil erosion because cattle consume the

grasses and herbs and top soil is exposed.

same situation occurs because of

deforestation, the trees and plants are cut

down to expose top soil which causes soil

erosion

substitution is the answer in this case
