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 most suitable for conserving amphibians, which are highly susceptible to a pathogenic (disease-causing) chytrid fungus?

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 of these habitats is likely to harbor the most recently diverged species?

The word triage originated during World War I and was first used by French doctors in prioritizing patients based on the severity of their wounds because there were more wounded soldiers in need of urgent care than there were resources to treat them. Conservation biologists have to make similar determinations with degraded ecosystems. Which of the following is the most important consideration when it comes to managing for maintenance of biodiversity?

Figure 23.3According to the theory of seafloor spreading, oceanic islands, such as the Hawaiian Islands depicted in Figure 23.3, form as oceanic crustal plates move over a stationary “hot spot” in the mantle. Currently, the big island of Hawaii is thought to be over a hot spot, which is why it is the only one of the seven islands that has active volcanoes. What should be true of the island of Hawaii?1. Scientists in search of ongoing speciation events are more likely to find them there than on the other six islands.2. Its species should be more closely related to those of nearer islands than to those of farther islands.3. It should have a rich fossil record of terrestrial organisms.4. There is a good chance of finding endemic species on this island.5. On average, it should have fewer species per unit surface area than the other six islands.
