  1. Edge species

  2. Link species

  3. Keystone species

  4. Pioneer species

  5. Successional species

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Keystone species is a species, which has a significant and disproportionately large influence on the community structure and characteristics. It has often considerable low abundance and biomass as compared to dominant species. Removal or decrease in number of keystone species causes serious disruptions in structure and function of community.
