Question
Would the extinction of one insect pollinator affect the ecosystem? Explain.
✓

Answer

It would affect the ecosystem because insect pollinators form a part of food web. It may lead to co-extinction of species in the case of a co-evolved plant. It is a case of mutualism where extinction of one invariably leads to the extinction of the other.
