The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the characteristics of the ecosystem described: 1. **Understanding the Terms**: - **Easily Damaged**: This indicates that the ecosystem has low stability. An ecosystem with low stability is more susceptible to disturbances and can be easily affected by changes in the environment. - **Recovers After Damage**: This suggests that the ecosystem has high resilience. An ecosystem with high resilience can bounce back quickly after disturbances, provided that the damaging effects have ceased. 2. **Combining the Characteristics**: - From the above definitions, we can conclude that the ecosystem in question has **low stability** (easily damaged) and **high resilience** (can recover quickly after the damaging effect stops). 3. **Evaluating the Options**: - A. Low stability high resilience: This matches our analysis. - B. High stability low resilience: This contradicts our findings since high stability means it is not easily damaged. - C. High stability low resilience: This also contradicts our findings for the same reason as option B. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **A. Low stability high resilience**.
