Which of these activities are ways people degrade commons? select the two correct responses. a. farmers allow livestock to overgraze federal pastureland. b. rangers limit the number of visitors to a nature preserve. c. rangers allow native plants to grow unchecked in a park. d. hunters hunt a valued species to extinction. e. politicians protect the habitat of an endangered species.

The correct answer is option , A and D

Here, the word common refers to the “Earth” and “its precious resource”. If a farmer allows overgrazing of pastureland, the land gets exposed to extreme weather condition and thus easily get eroded which could even lead to desertification. Also when a hunter kills a valued species that is at the verge of extinction, the ecosystem gets disturbed as the connecting link gets extinct which also disturbs the food chains and stability of the natural food web.
