The Asian long-horned beetle (ALB) hails from East Asia and is an extremely destructive pest of many species of trees. It was discovered in the US in 1996 and has established populations in NY, IL, NJ, and MA. Imagine that a breeding population of the ALB has been detected in Georgia. Using Elton's diversity-stability hypothesis, do you think the worst effects would be seen in natural forests, residential areas, or peach orchards?

Answer:

Peach orchards

Explanation:

Using the Elton's diversity hypothesis, the worst effect of Asian long-horned beetle will be peach orchard.

This is because according to the Elton's diversity hypothesis, a more diverse population is less susceptible to invasion by exotic pest. of the options, peach orchard is the less diverse and would most likely be more affected.
