Part of a forest area was cleared to build a road. What’s one possible consequence of this clearing? The rate of the growth of trees will increase. The population of herbivorous animals will increase. Animals will migrate to other places because they have less food and shelter. The frequency of forest fires will increase.

Answer: Animals will migrate to other places because they have less food and shelter.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the situation given, the forest area was cleared so as to make road. This will lead to disturbance in the forest ecosystem. The trees being the shelter and food source for animals will be cleared up and removed from the area. As a result of this the species of animal population will decline in number, migrate to new location or may get extinct.
