Two students propose models of how urban development affects biodiversity. Model 1: [Urban development] → [Habitat fragmentation] → [Populations become isolated] → [Reduced gene flow/inbreeding risk] → [Lower survival/reproduction] → [Population decline] → [Reduced biodiversity] Model 2: [Urban development] → [Population decline] → [Habitat fragmentation] Which statement best compares the models?
