Image with description A graph with sustainability on the vertical axis and increasing biodiversity on the horizontal axis. The line is vertical.

Image with description A graph with sustainability on the vertical axis and increasing biodiversity on the horizontal axis. The line slopes downward from left to right.

Image with description A graph with sustainability on the vertical axis and increasing biodiversity on the horizontal axis. The line slopes upward from left to right.

Explanation

Greater biodiversity generally supports sustainability by making ecosystems more resilient and better able to withstand environmental changes. Therefore, as biodiversity increases along the horizontal axis, sustainability also tends to increase along the vertical axis. The graph that slopes upward from left to right represents this positive relationship.
