why do moderate levels of disturbance result in an increase in community diversity? habitats are opened up for less competitive species. the resulting uniform habitat supports stability, which in turn supports diversity. competitively dominant species infrequently exclude less competitive species after a moderate disturbance. less-competitive species evolve strategies to compete with dominant species?

The correct answer is A) Habitats are opened up for less competitive species.

Moderate disturbance, like predation or bioturbation, can increase the biodiversity in a habitat because it can prevent a highly competitive species to become dominant and exclude other species that compete for the same ecological niche in the habitat.
