In every ecosystem, organisms have adapted to the conditions of their environment. When temperatures change, it becomes increasingly difficult for them to survive. It can also create opportunities for invasive species to enter the ecosystem, robbing native species of the resources they need.<\/p>\n<p>Another substantial threat to biodiversity is habitat loss and fragmentation. For example, when humans clear large sections of trees for land and lumber, it decreases the size of the ecosystem or splits it into smaller zones. This can have severe effects on wildlife, limiting access to food, water, mates, and more.<\/p>\n<p>In total, there are nine games in this learning objective, including:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-testimonial-wrapper av-jxg2pyzb-ed4edc09acd2185cd9efdab1c66d575f avia-grid-testimonials avia-grid-2-testimonials avia_animate_when_almost_visible' >\n<section class=\"avia-testimonial-row\"><div class='avia-testimonial av-ggw4il-61b17131c3457c78210ebcc1e273052b avia-testimonial-row-1 avia-first-testimonial flex_column no_margin av_one_half'><div class='avia-testimonial_inner'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia-testimonial-image'  itemprop=\"image\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"180\" height=\"180\" src=\"https:\/\/iscpif.fr\/incubateur_mediation_cnrs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2019\/06\/1-2-180x180.png\" class=\"attachment-square size-square\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-content '><div class='avia-testimonial-markup-entry-content'  itemprop=\"text\" ><div class=\"games-card__card\">\n<div class=\"games-card__text\"><span class=\"games-card__description\">You have landed the perfect job managing a park.
