Standards:
3.1.3.G Construct an argument with evidence that in a particular habitat some organisms can survive well, some survive less well, and some cannot survive at all.
3.1.3.H Make a claim supported by evidence about the merit of a solution to a problem caused when the environment changes and the types of plants and animals that live there may change.

When the environment changes, some individuals in a population may have traits that provide a reproductive advantage which over many generations can change the make-up of a population.
Humans depend on biodiversity, the variety of species and ecosystems, for resources and human actions can impact the diversity of species.
