How is a population impacted when biological diversity is increased? Does an increase in biodiversity always affect an ecosystem positively? Why or why not?

Are there any environmental factors that could impact species diversity in your neighborhood? Explain.

Question one: Greater biodiversity in ecosystems, species, and individuals leads to greater stability. For example, species with high genetic diversity and many populations that are adapted to a wide variety of conditions are more likely to be able to weather disturbances, disease, and climate change.                Question two: If those resources limit growth, then increasing functional richness should lead to greater total productivity and decreased loss of resources from the ecosystem. Facilitative interactions among species could also lead to increases in ecosystem pools or process rates as species or functional richness increases.                                                                                      Question three: Important direct drivers affecting biodiversity are habitat change, climate change, invasive species, overexploitation, and pollution.

hormones in blood stream

endocrine glands secrete hormones into the blood stream near them; the hormones then travel in our bloodstream until it reaches its destination, called a target cell, in distance parts of the body. in the target tissue, hormones lock onto the target’s plasma membrane, called the receptor site.

it would lead to upper respiratory infections and pneumonia.
