- Suppose you were given the task of estimating the density of two plant species in a field. Based on the life histories of the two species, you expect that the spatial distribution of one of the species is approximately uniform, whereas the other is likely to be clumped. How might your approach to estimating the density of these two species differ?arrow_forwardLevels of CO2 and methane in the atmosphere have been increasing over the years. What effect is this having on conditions on Earth? A. Allowing too much heat to escape into space. B. Leading to a rise in global temperatures. C. Interfering with the uptake of phosphorus gases by primary producers. D. Increasing the rate of biological magnification. Reset Selectionarrow_forwardWhich of the scenarios below illustrate(s) a trade off relating to functional diversity and life history traits? Select all that apply A- The C3 photosynthetic pathway is more energy efficient than C4 and CAM, but less water efficient. B-Plants that produce large seeds generally produce very few, while plants that produce small seeds generally produce many of them. C- Indices of species diversity rely both on species richness and species evenness, but not on species relatedness D- Endothermic animals are better able to maintain their preferred body temperature than ectothermic animals, but expend a large amount of metabolic energy to do so. E- Organisms that specialize on a single food source may use that resource more efficiently than generalists, but risk starvation if unable to find their particular food source.arrow_forward
- Identify the dependent and independent variables in the following examples: -The growth of bacterial populations is measured in cold, medium, and high temperatures. -Guinea pigs are kept at different temperatures for 6 weeks. Percent weight gain is recorded. -The diversity of algal species is calculated for a coastal area before and after an oil spill. -Batches of seeds are soaked in salt solutions of different concentrations, and germination is counted for each batch. -An investigator hypothesizes that the adult weight of a dog is higher when it has fewer littermates.arrow_forwardGive typing answer with explanation and conclusion Which of the following would NOT be considered an ecosystem service? A. Microbes in swamps decontaminate water B. Bats and pangolins are reservoirs for COVID-19 C. Wild Hazelnut trees have genetic diversity which is not found on farms, and which can be incorporated into the cultivated population to improve disease resistance when needed D. D.

- In this question, why B is correct and C is wrong? Bighorn sheep are an iconic species in the western United States, however, their population size is drastically lower than it once was historically. These sheep inhabit montane patches surrounded by urban and agricultural landscapes. Accordingly, bighorn sheep can be considered a metapopulation. Wildlife managers would like to increase the patch occupancy of bighorn sheep. Which of the following would be the most effective conservation/restoration strategy? None of these statements is an effective conservation strategy. Increase patch size and quality, and decrease the distance between patches. Increase patch size and the distance between patches, and decrease patch quality. Increase the distance between patches and patchy quality, and decrease patch size. Decrease patch size, distance between patches, and patch quality.arrow_forwardIs the following statement consistent with the provided data? Answer TRUE if the statement is consistent with the data.Answer FALSE if the statement is not consistent with the data. 1. The evolution of freeze tolerance involves some factors that were not shaped directly by natural selection. 2. Because of their freeze tolerance, wood frogs may colonise more of the remainder of the island of Newfoundland than the leopard frog. 3. The distribution of the wood frog and leopard frog supports character displacement as a plausible hypothesis for why they overlap.arrow_forwardGive typing answer with explanation and conclusion Consider this claim: Changes in environmental conditions always result in new ecosystems and loss of biodiversity characterized by an increase in the number of some species, the evolution of new species, and the extinction of some species. Use what you have learned from the lesson, as well as reliable and reputable resources, to evaluate this claim. Use at least three examples from the lesson and other sources to support the valid ideas in the claim and refute the invalid?arrow_forward
