habitat division

habitat pollution

habitat corruption

habitat fragmentation

Animals may not thrive in their new habitat

If coral reefs die, so will many fish species that depend on them

Habitat fragmentation causes loss of habitat for many organisms

Habitat fragmentation does not pose a threat to animals.

An ecosystem is able to recover, or adjust easily to change

The temperature of ocean water causes algae to leave coral reefs.

Smaller fragments of a habitat join to make a large habitat

A large area of habitat is broken up into smaller isolated areas

Microplastics create dead zones in the oceans.

Plastics provide habitats for marine life.

Wildlife such as dolphins, seals and seabirds often eat plastic, mistaking it for food.
