Studying the diversity of month species in two forests calculates H' = 1.6 for forest 1 and H' = 1.1 for forest 2. What conclusion can be made based on these da The moth species richness of forest 1 is greater than forest 2 If the species richness of both forests is equal, the species evenness of forest 2 is greater There was more sampling effort in forest 2 than forest 1 If the species richness of both forests is equal, the species evenness of forest 1 is greater

Studente of an ecology clasa conduct a field study in an area located on the boundary betweens savannah and a forest. In addition to using various sampling methods to estimate species abundance, they observe the feeding patterns of dhe organisms. O Deseribe TWO sampling methods which the students could use to entimate the abundance of plant species in the area (a) (i1) Deseribe ONE method they could use to collect data on the mobile animals which inhabit the area.
When we measure species density. If you apply random sampling and systematic sampling to a site setting, what problems may we encounter? Why is there an error compared with the actual density of species?

Species 1 2 3 5. A biologist notices that plants growing in dense thickets of vegetation (uncleared areas) tend to be much smaller than when they are grown in isolation in cleared areas in his garden. As they are a very cool gardener, in addition to being a very cool person in general, they do an experiment and observe the following for five plant species: 4 5 Biomass of the species in uncleared areas (g) 19 14 14 29 50 Biomass of the species in cleared areas (g) 20 34 48 39 51 Explain these results and the concept behind them thoroughly, including in quantitative terms
You have determined that a community consisting of 12 species has Shannon Diversity index score of 1.784. What is the species Evenness of this community? 0.34 0.84 0.62 0.71
Draw a species accumulation curve for the beetles in Area C3, based on the data shown in Table 2. Ensure that you calculate a standard deviation around each average number of species per sample; plot this on this figure. Make sure you label the axes and that you provide a legend. You will need to reassemble the samples in all possible combinations in order to derive the species area curve.(porvided the table)
Draw a stacked bar chart showing, for each species, the percentage of observations made in each height zone. Note that the height of each bar will be the same as the total for each species (100%). Label the axes and provide a figure legend. The vertical distribution of five hypothetical warbler species in a coniferous forest showing the locations where individuals belonging to each species were recorded.

One concept of conservation biology is known as minimum viablepopulation. Some species’ populations are so fragmented andsmall that they may have very little genetic variability left. Withminimal genetic variation in the population, there is little likelihoodthat a population can adapt to an environmental threat, such as anew disease. Florida panthers are at or below the minimum viablepopulation level (estimated population less than 80). 1)Do you think that it is practical to use limited resources toconserve a population like the Florida panther? 2)Why?
You've been out in the field collecting data on the predation of holly leaves. You collect 200 leaves in total of which 100 leaves contain one mine, 20 leaves contain 2 mines and 30 leaves contain 3 mines. After close examination with your hand lens and dissecting microscope you categorize a total of 15 mines with round holes, 9 mines that were torn open and 27 mines with an irregular hole. After some basic analyses you conclude that the predation rates by blue tits and wasps are: A. 3.7% and 6.5% B. 6% and 10% C. 10% and 6% D. 4% and 6.5%
You are comparing species diversity between four different habitats: which of the following habitats is the most diverse? Habitat A has 15 species total, with approximately equal representation across all species Habitat B has 15 species total, and is dominated by two of its fifteen species Habitat C has 3 species total, with approximately equal representation across all species Habitat D has 3 species total, and is dominated by one of its three species Habitats A and B are equally diverse
Using the concept of beta diversity, as a field researcher interested in comparing communities in stream habitat, what data will be neede to collect if you are interested in comparing how species occurrence and abundance differ in different parts of the stream?
