Answer:

It will lead to forced migration.

Step-by-step explanation:

Changes in ecosystems affect living organisms. An ecosystem is a self supporting unit in which there is an exchange of materials and energy between the living and non living parts. The living part of an ecosystem is called its biotic component. This includes the organisms that live within the ecosystem. The nonliving parts of the ecosystem such as topography, rainfall etc are called abiotic components of the ecosystem.

A short-term environmental change usually forces organism to leave an ecosystem in their quest for survival. For instance, when short term environmental changes such as a sudden drop in rainfall causes drought, organisms migrate in order to obtain food and water. This is a forced migration.
