Question

which of the following is a strategy associated with conservation biology?
exploring the interdependence of species within ecosystems on a global scale
designating a nature reserve to protect an endangered species of wildcat
restoring the natural flow of a river that was dammed or diverted, to enhance the habitat and migration of fish and other aquatic organisms.
monitoring and evaluating groundwater quality in a formerly contaminated site

Explanation:

Conservation biology aims to protect biodiversity. Designating nature - reserves for endangered species, restoring river habitats for aquatic organisms, and exploring species interdependence are all related to protecting living organisms and ecosystems. Monitoring groundwater quality is more related to environmental science in terms of water quality assessment rather than directly to conservation of living species and ecosystems in the same way as the other three.

Answer:

A. Exploring the interdependence of species within ecosystems on a global scale
B. Designating a nature reserve to protect an endangered species of wildcat
C. Restoring the natural flow of a river that was dammed or diverted, to enhance the habitat and migration of fish and other aquatic organisms
