Passage - 1
Invasions of exotic species into new geographic areas sometimes occur naturally and without human agency. However, human actions have increased this trickle to a flood. Human-caused introductions may occur either accidentally as a consequence of human transport, or internationally but illegally to serve some private purpose or legitimately to procure some hoped-for public benefit by bringing a pest under control, producing new agricultural products or providing novel recreational opportunities. Many introduced species are assimilated into communities without much obvious effect. However, some have been responsible for dramatic change to native species and natural communities. For example, the accidental introduction of the brown tree snake Boiga irregulars into Guam, an island in the pacific, has through nest predation reduced 10 endemic forest bird species to the point of extinction.
One of the major reasons for the world's great biodiversity is the world's great biodiversity is the occurrence of centres of endemism so that similar habitats in different groups of species that happen to have evolved there. If every species naturally had access to everywhere on the globe, we might expect a relatively small number of successful species to become dominant in each biome. The extent to which this homogenization can happen naturally is restricted by the limited power of dispersal of most species in the face of the Physical barriers that exist to dispersal. By virtue of the transport opportunities offered by humans, these barriers have been breached by an ever-increasing number of exotic species. The effects of introductions have been to convert a hugely diverse range of local community compositions into something much more homogeneous.
It would be wrong, however, to conclude that introducing species to a region will inevitably cause a decline in species richness there. For example, there are numerous species of plants, invertebrates and vertebrates found in continental Europe but absent from the British Isles(many because they have so fa failed to recolonize after the last glaciations). Their introduction would be likely to augment British biodiversity. The significant detrimental effect noted above arises where aggressive species provide a novel challenge to endemic biotas ill-equipped to deal with them.
With reference to the passage, which of the following Statements is correct?
Introduction of the exotic species into new geographical areas always leads to reduced biodiversity.
Exotic species introduced by man into new areas have always greatly altered the native ecosystems.
Man is the only reason to convert a hugely diverse range of local community compositions into more homogeneous ones.
None of the statements (a), (b) an (c ) is Correct in this context.
Why does man introduce exotic species into new geographical areas?
1. To breed exotic species with local varieties.
2. To increase agricultural and productivity.
3. For beautification and landscaping.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
