Question

a group of biologists would like to recreate suitable habitats for wildlife in a particular area. they would also like to help fight climate change. to achieve these goals, the biologists decide to increase the density of trees and the canopy thickness in the area. which biodiversity restoration method should the biologists use?
a. bioremediation
b. biological augmentation
c. canopy fogging
d. reforestation

Explanation:

• Bioremediation uses organisms to clean environmental contaminants, not habitat/forest restoration.
• Biological augmentation adds beneficial organisms to an ecosystem, not increasing tree density.
• Canopy fogging is a sampling method for insects, not habitat restoration.
• Reforestation involves planting trees to increase tree density, thicken forest canopies, restore wildlife habitats, and sequester carbon to fight climate change, matching all stated goals.

Answer:

D. reforestation
