Answer 2

1. Ground, water, and air pollution can damage habitats.

2. Deforestation can displace animals from their homes.

5. Invasive species introduced to an area can harm native species.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Pollution is the introduction of substances or other physical elements in a medium that cause it to be unsafe or unfit for use.The medium can be an ecosystem, a physical environment or a living being. The pollutant can be a chemical, energy (such as sound, heat, light or radioactivity).

• Deforestation or deforestation is a process usually caused by human action, which destroys the forest area, is directly caused by the action of people on nature, mainly due to logging or burning by the industry timber, as well as for obtaining land for agriculture, mining and livestock.

• Of the estimated 18,000 bird species on the planet, about 1,000 fly over territories that are not their originals, according to a study published in PLoS Biology by a dozen British, Australian and South African researchers. After tracing the origin of these allochthonous species, they created a large map with its geographical distribution. But it is not a fixed image, but it allows to see from the 1500 to the year 2000 when and how a species came from outside to a new territory.
