Why are scientists concerned about specis loss if extinction is a natural process?

The extinction rate is much higher than it would be without humans, therefore most animals would have not gone extinct had it not been for human intervention.

What is the process in which scientists study the natural world?
Science
What s a process used by scientist in there studies of the natural world?
A process used by scientists used for studies of the natural world
How do you know if an animal is extinct?
Extinction of a particular animal species occurs when there are no more individuals of that species alive anywhere in the world. The process of extinction is a natural part of evolution.
Which choice describes the process scientists use to mimic a natural genetic process of cells?
Directed evolution
How can scientists help to prevent a natural process from becoming an enviromental hazard?
Through continued studies on the specific natural process, scientist have figured out how to prevent it from becoming an environmental hazard.
Because extinction is a natural process why should humans now be concerned with the extinction rate?
Because the extinction rate is conservatively 100 to 1,000 times higher because of humans. So if it wasn't for us the natural rate would be such that the environment could recover from it. It is true that we are a natural part of extinction, but we have also benefited many species of animal that we deem to have favourable characteristics. Cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry exist in huge numbers due to human activity. If an animal is not useful to humans, and is co-existing in the same habitat, its numbers will decline. Cuckoos invade the nests of other birds, substitute it's own eggs for the hosts, and lets them raise it's young. Is this wrong? Or is this nature at work? Humans are also nature at work, and we should only be concerned if a species benefiting us is in decline.
What is the of the process in which of species die out?
extinction
How would you respond to someone who syas that because extinction is a natural process you should not worry about the loss of biodiversity?
Tell them that just because something is natural, sdoesn't mean it's good! (Poisen Ivy anyone?) they are right and wrong.many species have gone simply because of the stupidity of humans,not by natural process.
What is sciencent process?
Science is a process of investigation into the natural world and the knowledge generated through that process. Scientists use multiple research methods to study the natural world. Data collected through scientific research must be analyzed and interpreted to be used as evidence.
What process refers to the diverse ways in which scientists study the natural world and propose explanations based on the evidence they gather?
Science Inquiry

What does the statement Extinction is sometimes a natural process?
Well, sometimes things have to go so new things can grow. Or that there isn't a habitat available for the certain species and they have to move on.
