Answer:

The correct answer would be D. stability

Biodiversity refers to the sum total of different types of organisms living in a world or in a specific region.

Increased biodiversity have lots of benefits for an ecosystem, for example,

  • increased biodiversity increases the health of an ecosystem,
  • it increases the overall productivity of the ecosystem,
  • it increases the resistance of an ecosystem against any natural disaster such as drought, flood, et cetera.

Thus, increased biodiversity would increase the stability of the ecosystem.
