Question

select the correct answer. beavers cut trees and use them to dam streams. they also help in creating ponds. this increases the biodiversity of the place because it affects the distribution and population of many plants and animals. what would this be an example of? a. autogenic succession b. negative feedback c. positive feedback d. allogenic succession

Explanation:

Autogenic succession is when organisms within a community cause changes that lead to succession. Beavers, by damming streams and creating ponds, change their environment and affect the distribution and population of plants and animals, which is an example of autogenic succession. Positive and negative feedback are regulatory mechanisms and not types of succession. Allogenic succession is caused by external factors like natural disasters, not by the actions of the organisms within the community like beavers in this case.

Answer:

A. autogenic succession
