Question

how did human activities affect on flora and fauna

Answer 1

Human activities affect flora and fauna in the following way.

1. Agricultural activities lead to the destruction of forests and natural vegetation. Instead, such natural flora gets replaced by crops that human beings consume. This affects the vegetation in the region.

2. Destruction of forests and natural vegetation also affects the fauna of a region. Animals lose their natural habitat. As a result, their numbers decline and some species of wild animals may become extinct. Human activity replaces natural fauna with domesticated animals.

3. When humans build towns and cities, they destroy the natural vegetation and forests. This also affects the flora and fauna of the region.

4. Large scale industrialization leads to air and water pollution which also reduces the number of wild animals and birds in a region.
