Justify the statement

Neha Agarwal · Accepted Answer

Dear student,
Due to the excessive exploitation of the plant and animal resources
by human beings, the ecosystem has been disturbed In consequence,
about 1,300 plant species are endangered and 20 species are extinct
Quite a few animal species are also endangered and some have become
extinct
Apart from hunting, other factors that have caused endangerment
of plant and animal species are: pollution due to chemical and
industrial waste, and acid deposits; introduction of alien species;
reckless cutting of forests to bring land under cultivation and
inhabitation Thus, any threat to any species of plant or animal is
threat to mankind
