D) a generalist species

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Generalist species have a broader range of habitat and food requirements and can adapt to changes in their environment better than specialist species. Therefore, they are more resistant to habitat fragmentation. Large predator species may be negatively affected by habitat fragmentation as it may reduce their hunting territory, while migratory species may have difficulty finding suitable nesting or feeding grounds.
