Question

An ecosystem which can be easily ruined/damaged but can recover after some time if damaging effect stops. The ecosystem is characterised by having

• A. Low and poor stability with low resilience
• B. High stability and low resilience
• C. Low stability and high resilience
• D. High stability and high resilience

Answer 1

The correct option is C Low stability and high resilience

Stability is the power of a system to be in their state against the unfavourable condition. Resilience is the capability of regaining into its original shape or position after being deformed. Hence, the ecosystem has low stability and high resilience e.g., forest fire and then reforestation in that particular area.
