Which of the following is not correct according to analogy given by Paul Ehrlich?

1. Loss of the key species that drive the major ecosystem functions is a more serious threat to flight safety than loss of other less important species
2. Proper functioning of ecosystem is initially may not be affected by species loss
3. Over a period of time, if the species loss is continuous, the ecosystem gets affected after a time
4. Even the loss of not much significant species lead to critical damage to ecosystem.
