How many different habitats are in a region

What is habitat diversity?

How many different habitats are in a region

# of species and abundance in the community

What is species diversity?

# of species and abundance in the community

How many different habitats are in a region

an area or ridge of land that separates waters flowing to different rivers, basins, or seas.

water stored under ground used for drinking

Which is NOT true about disturbances?

they occur only on short time scales

they are caused by natural events such as hurricanes

they can cause complete destruction of an ecosystem

many result in no change in ecosystem productivity

The intermediate disturbance hypothesis theory states that intermediate levels of disturbance will

increase ecosystem nutrient cycling

Phylogenetic trees show...

Evolutionary relationships between different species

How one species has evolved through time

Which species has evolved the most

Which species have evolved from other species

Which of the following has a negative impact on biodiversity?

Accidental introduction of invasive species

What prediction is correct about island biogeography?

Animals Islands closer to mainland will migrate successfully and there will be more diversity

Smaller islands have more resources, and will have more biodiversity

Larger islands have more space for resources, but will have less biodiversity due to competition

Animals will fly to far away mainland and there will be more diversity

Which of these human actions impacts multiple nutrient cycles?

Burning sulfur- containing coal

If an island is closer to the mainland, how will this impact the biodiversity?

There will be a higher level of biodiversity here than an island that is further away.

There will be a lower level of biodiversity here than an island that is further away.

There will be no difference in biodiversity on islands based on distance to mainland.

Which of the following statements is true?

Volcanoes creating igneous rock formations lay based for primary succession to take place

Primary succession is followed by secondary succession

Primary succession occurs over a shorter time span

Forest fires and hurricanes lead to primary succession because a soil base still exists

A grassland ecosystem has a Simpson Index of 0.6. Explain how this value reflects the biodiversity of the ecosystem.

The Simpson Index of 0.6 reflects a relatively high level of biodiversity in the grassland ecosystem.

The Simpson Index of 0.6 reflects a lack of biodiversity in the grassland ecosystem.

The Simpson Index of 0.6 reflects a low level of biodiversity in the grassland ecosystem.

The Simpson Index of 0.6 reflects a moderate level of biodiversity in the grassland ecosystem.

Event either natural or human caused that disrupts an ecosystem or population

Genetically based changes within a population of organisms that raise the chances of survival

Organisms that have adapted better to the environment are more likely to survive than those that have not.

Process where different factors stop the growth of a species

Organisms that have adapted better to the environment are more likely to survive than those that have not.

Any positive benefit that the ecosystem and its organisms provide for people

When a population within a species evolves to create a new distinct species

The number of different species in a particular area

Organisms that have adapted better to the environment are more likely to survive than those that have not.

Biological variation in a specific species

When a population within a species evolves to create a new distinct species

Genetically based changes within a population of organisms that raise the chances of survival
