Final answer:

High biodiversity may not ensure stability; long-lived species and community characteristics are more important for maintaining a climax community's stability.


Explanation:

High biodiversity does not always guarantee the stability of a climax community due to increased species interactions. However, the presence of many long-lived species within the community is crucial for maintaining stability over time. Additionally, human caretakers play a role in ecosystem conservation but are not as essential as factors related to the community's intrinsic characteristics.
