In looking at the speciesarea plot in the accompanying figure, what can be concluded?

The Latitudinal Gradient describes where we expect to find high and low species diversity on a global scale. Describe this pattern of global biodiversity.

Please use the following information to answer the question(s) below.Three forest areas are being considered for a conservation reserve. Each area contains the same number of trees and is the same cumulative size. The area surrounding the forest patches is a mix of agricultural land and residential homes.Which area(s) would be able to support the most scarlet tanagers, a bird species that is restricted to forest interior habitat?

In the following figure, the isthmus separates the Pacific Ocean on the left (side A) from the Caribbean (Atlantic Ocean) on the right (side B). The seawater on either side of the isthmus is separated into five depth habitats (15), with 1 being the shallowest. Which process led to the formation of the species pairs of Pacific and Caribbean snapping shrimp?

Based on the graph above from the bumble bee case study, Indicate what should be the labels on the X-axis for the graph. Interpret the results as shown in the graph and explain how these results support or don’t support the hypothesis presented in the case study.

Use the accompanying figure to answer this question: What factors have a positive effect on plant biomass, based on the data presented?

In the following figure, the isthmus separates the Pacific Ocean on the left (side A) from the Caribbean (Atlantic Ocean) on the right (side B). The seawater on either side of the isthmus is separated into five depth habitats (15), with 1 being the shallowest.Why should deepwater shrimp on different sides of the isthmus have diverged from each other earlier than shallow-water shrimp?

Figure 23.5Which period had the greatest rate of extinction?

In Biogeography, the term secular migration refers to…

Why is the slope of the species area curve (from the equation S = cAz) different when looking at increasing island size vs. increasing sample area on a mainland? What causes the difference?
