Tap to reveal answer
Wetlands provide many services. They filter water to make it cleaner, they absorb water from storms and decrease the probability of flooding in the surrounding area. They also tend to give a home to many different organisms. Destruction of wetlands impedes all of these services. Therefore, the correct answer must be "increased resistance to storms and flooding."
