Consequences increase in size and scale and become longer lasting.

Consequences spread through the area like a ripple effect, starting in the center and radiating outward.

To determine the correct answer, we can analyze the options provided:

1. "Consequences decrease in size and scale and become short term."
2. "Consequences travel from one type of habitat to another, until multiple habitats are affected."
3. "Consequences spread through the area like a ripple effect, starting in the center and radiating outward."
4. "Consequences increase in size and scale and become longer lasting."

Looking at the options, we can see that two of them are exactly the same (option 1 and option 2), and another two are exactly the same (option 3 and option 4).

Therefore, we can determine that the correct answer, with respect to the given options, is that "Consequences spread through the area like a ripple effect, starting in the center and radiating outward."
