The genetic diversity in the species serves as the genes in which they have that speaks of their features that they acquire. This also helps the population or group of species to be able to overcome the changes in the environment they live in. In the following, the correct answer that could cause a decline in genetic diversity in a population is letter D, decreasing competition. It is because in our world, everything is connected. From how the preys and predators compete for their way to survive, just like the genetic diversity, if we remove or decrease competition, then there won’t be any balance.

answer: -

reaction:

na + cl ⇌ nacl

balanced chemical equation:

na + 2cl ⇌ nacl2

sodium + clorine goes to form sodium chloride (table salt).

the product is nacl2.

and the reactants are na and cl.

(note: if you don’t know what ⇌ means, read below: -

⇌(double head arrow) means reversible reaction).
