Cuban tree frogs eat smaller native frogs in the florida everglades. what does this scenario represent?
a loss of biodiversity due to a catastrophic event
b gain in biodiversity due to human activity
c loss of biodiversity due to an invasive species
d gain in biodiversity due to climate change

The correct answer is option c loss of biodiversity due to an invasive species.

Explanation:

The biodiversity of an ecosystem can be highly affected due to an invasive species.

An invasive species is the one that arrives from another region, in this case it is a frog that arrives from Cuba to Florida Everglades. When this happens, usually the species are taken to another area by the humans, and once there it adapts and reproduces.

Invasive species are those that cause problems in the habitat they are invading, if it were not dangerous, it is called an introduced or non-native species.

The problem that the Cuban frog would cause when eating smaller native frogs in the Florida Everglades is called predation. Where one individual eats another to survive.

Given this information, we can say that the correct option is option C.
