Can you think of a scientific explanation, besides analogy used by Paul Ehrlich, for the direct relationship between diversity and stability of an ecosystem?
Following are the scientific explanation for the direct relationship between diversity and stability of an ecosystem:
Imagine a forest area, where diversify species of flora are growing. Plants harbor a variety of insects on which a lot of bird species would depend for their food.
If a specific plant species dies then the related insect population will be affected in the obligatory way that would lead to food unavailability for the birds.
In addition, if the plant species was a nitrogen fixer then the death of these plants would mean no regain or fill up of soil with nitrogen. This will obviously affect the other plants as well. So, if the cycle continues, the whole habitat/ ecosystem will be negatively affected.
