Question

Read the passage and write a summary of the paragraph. Also, suggest a suitable title.

Global warming is creating a wide range of serious issues that are not only affecting the planet but also the biota (Flora, fauna and other forms of life such as fungi are collectively referred to a biota). The imbalance in the environment is leading to extinction of many rare species of plants, animals and birds. Our country is well-known for its bio-diversity. In spite of this, many species are facing the threat of extinction.  Environment Science clearly says that extinction of a single species triggers a series of conditions that can endanger many other species because of the ripple effect. Humanity is dependent on existence of theee species and their extinction can lead to unprecedented trouble because of the interconnectedness of the ecological web of life. This is not the first time that we are sensing a warning about species being endangered. During the course of time, many specieshave become extinct. We might have heard about some, but in reality, the number is many times more. Air and water pollution are the main causes. Animals thrive in forests and oceans. The life of these creatures is directly dependent on the quality of these places. While forests are being cut down at an alarming rate, water bodies are getting polluted, and the sources of water are drying up by the day. This has put at risk the life of many species of animals and birds. There are some animals that have clearly become extinct because of being hunted.

Answer 1

Biodiversity under Threat

Global warming and environmental imbalance are threatening the planet’s biota, causing the extinction of many rare plants, animals, and birds. The loss of even a single species disrupts ecosystems because of interdependence, creating a ripple effect that endangers others. Human survival relies on these species, so their extinction can bring severe problems. Major causes include air and water pollution, deforestation, drying up of water sources, and hunting. Though biodiversity is rich in many countries, numerous species now face extinction. Urgent conservation measures, pollution control, and habitat protection are needed to prevent further loss and to maintain ecological balance for future generations.
