How can an increase in biodiversity lead to an increase in ecosystem stability?

a.

a more biodiverse ecosystem is not subject to change.

b.

a more biodiverse ecosystem has a higher chance of adapting to species changes.

c.

a more biodiverse ecosystem has fewer species types to balance.

d.

a more biodiverse ecosystem is subject to fewer natural disasters.

B is the right

A more biodiverse ecosystem has a higher chance of adapting to species changes.

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.
