Do you think humans should try to protect all plant and animal species from extinction? Why or why not?

Answer:

I believe they should.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each animal and plant has some important part in an ecosystem. If one animal or plant goes extinct then it may cause other animals to die off. Like food chain for example grass-grasshopper-frog-snake-hawk if grasshoppers went extinct frogs may have to adapt and find other creatures to eat and if they are not able to find other animals they will start to die off then snakes will have to find another food. What if snakes cant find another source of food? then they will start to die off to. Then hawks will have to find another food source as well. So when one animal dies it effects the whole food chain and ecosystem because more then one animal eat a certain type of animal. Hi hope this helps~

Answer:

Of course!

Step-by-step explanation:

Plants and animals are resources for humans to utilize in order for us to live. Plants are crucial for human survival because they provide oxygen, fiber, food, medications, and many more items, which is severely important, considering humans need air to breathe. Animals also supply us with food, clothing, support (horses, mules, guide dogs), etc. Without either of these essential items, humans, or any other form of life, will suffer. So, plants and animals should be protected and used fairly when needed.

I hope this was a clear explanation! Have a nice night! :))
