Answer:

(C) Trout are released into a lake that already contains trout to increase the population size

Explanation:

Introduction of new trouts into a lake with an already established trout population will not decrease the diversity within that environment.

Biodiversity is the variation of life forms in a particular environment or study area. The more the number of different species, the high its diversity.

  • Natural disasters like volcanic eruptions, hurricane, flooding are harmful to life and reduces diversity.
  • Climate change and introduction of invasive species are not diversity friendly measures.
