Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the concept of habitat restoration: Habitat restoration involves activities aimed at returning a degraded or damaged ecosystem to its natural state or improving its ecological health.
Evaluate each option provided in the question to determine whether it aligns with the goal of habitat restoration.
Option 1: 'Planting native vegetation in degraded areas' - Native vegetation supports local ecosystems, promotes biodiversity, and helps restore the natural balance of the habitat. This is a method of habitat restoration.
Option 2: 'Draining wetlands for agricultural use' - Wetlands are critical ecosystems that support biodiversity and water filtration. Draining them for agriculture damages the habitat and is not a restoration activity.
Option 3: 'Constructing roads through natural habitats' and Option 4: 'Introducing invasive species to increase biodiversity' - Both activities disrupt ecosystems and harm native species, making them counterproductive to habitat restoration.
