If hunting has stopped in a conservation area but habitat is divided into small fragments, what main problem will remain?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Movement and genetic exchange may be obstructed

The direct answer is B: movement and genetic exchange may be obstructed. Habitat fragmentation means one large, connected habitat is broken into small separated patches by roads, farms, buildings or other land uses. Even if hunting stops, animals may be unable to move safely between patches. Small isolated populations may meet less often, so breeding between them and genetic exchange can decrease. This can increase vulnerability and reduce long-term survival. Option B correctly describes the remaining problem. Option A is wrong because tourism does not automatically stop. Option C is wrong because fragmented habitats do not guarantee more food; they may reduce available resources. Option D is wrong because stopping hunting alone cannot solve every wildlife problem. Wildlife corridors help reconnect habitat patches. Memory cue: fragmentation means isolation; corridors restore connection.
