Answer
(2) Low stability and high resilience
Solution
Stability (resistance) is the ability of an ecosystem to resist disturbance, and resilience is its ability to return to its original state after a disturbance.
An ecosystem that is 'easily damaged' has low stability, and one that 'recovers after some time when the damaging effect stops' has high resilience.
