Select all correct answers. (Image is shown)Why do r-selected species tends to be successful in a pioneer community? Why? (answer in minimum of 500 words)
- Which statments are correct? Question 25 options: Species diversity tends to increase with evapostranspiration Species diversity tends to increase with when parasitism is low Species diversity tends to increase with island area Species diversity tends to be higher when disturbance frequency is low Species diversity tends to increase with decreasing latitudeAnswer each question in 300 words: 1. What is ecological sampling? 2. What size and shape of quadrat would you use to measure (a) the density of seagrasses and (b) the density of mangroves in Taklong Island National Marine Reserve, Guimaras? Support your answer in (a) and (b)The Jena experiment tested the effects of plant species richness on the ecosystem function of various grassland areas over a 15-year timespan. Ecosystem function was determined by measuring the biomass, soil characteristics, types, and numbers of producers and consumers in the area, and tested to determine the strength of the biodiversity effect on the ecosystem. The graphs show the ecosystem function at the onset of the experiment (dotted line) versus the ecosystem function at the end of the 15-year experiment (solid line) in four different test sites (A, B, C, and D).
