Ecosystem Restoration and Rewilding · NCERT Biology

Trophic cascades refer to:

  1. Energy loss between trophic levels during metabolic processes
  2. Chain reactions across trophic levels following changes at the top
  3. Random species extinctions driven by habitat loss or disease
  4. Nutrient cycling in soils mediated by decomposer organisms
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Chain reactions across trophic levels following changes at the top

Trophic cascades occur when changes at one trophic level affect others. Reintroducing predators can reshape entire ecosystems.
