Question

what is a direct consequence of destroying a habitat and replacing it with a single species, resulting in a monoculture? algal blooms in surface waters a loss of biodiversity pesticide residue on food increased energy use

Explanation:

Destroying a habitat and creating a monoculture (single species) reduces the variety of living organisms in that area. Algal blooms relate to nutrient pollution in water, pesticide residue is about chemical use in agriculture, and increased energy use is unrelated to habitat destruction for monoculture. So the direct consequence is loss of biodiversity.

Answer:

B. a loss of biodiversity
