BIO 182 EXAM 3 questions well
answered to pass

True or False

The greatest density of species occurs at the North Pole. - correct answer ✔✔False



What is the tragedy of the commons? - correct answer ✔✔the tendency for a common resource to be
overused



True or false: cheating ( free riding) confers the smallest benefit when most of the group cooperate to
invest? - correct answer ✔✔False. when more ppl invest, there is a higher benefit for the freeloaders



true or false: punishment creates a cost that balances the benefit of selfishness - correct answer
✔✔True



how can we promote a cooperation on a larger scale - correct answer ✔✔rebates( benefits) for
participants

punishment for non-participants



what are 3 strategies for when species numbers are getting low - correct answer ✔✔Captive breeding

DNA banks

protection



Extinction due to 3 human activities - correct answer ✔✔hunting, habitat destruction, global warming



True or False: if productivity enhances diversity, one should see more species in deep tropical waters
than along shallow coastlines - correct answer ✔✔false we see more productivity in deep tropical
waters, BUT we predict that shallow coastlines should rather have it

,true or false: Primary productivity is likely necessary, but insufficient condition for biodiversity - correct
answer ✔✔true



true or false: greater productivity could support more individuals of a species without supporting more
species - correct answer ✔✔true. just b/c you have a huge amount of primary productivity does not
mean it would give more amount of species. it could simply have more individuals from the same species



More productivity = more organisms, but it is not equal to________ - correct answer ✔✔more species



why is the more speciation at the equator - correct answer ✔✔temperatures are stable= more
specialized organisms

no change in temperatures in high or low altitude



increased cost to dispersal over a climate gradient=> low gene flow=> high alopatric speciation=>
___________ - correct answer ✔✔very sensitive to climate changes



you have to be a _______ to survive changes - correct answer ✔✔generalist ( BUT species in tropics are
specialists)



Low Latitiudes= _________thermal niches

High Latitudes= __________thermal niches - correct answer ✔✔narrow

broad



true or false: a more specialized species should occur over a narrow range of altitude or latitude - correct
answer ✔✔true for both altitude and latitude



primary consumers - correct answer ✔✔first organisms in the chain to eat the other organisms

eat the photosynthetic organisms = herbivores



Tropical species have the _______ latitudional ranges

Species at high latitudes have the _______ latitudional ranges - correct answer ✔✔lowest

, highest



greenhouse effect - correct answer ✔✔warming/heat that results when solar radiation is trapped by the
atmosphere



what is anthropogenic - correct answer ✔✔caused by humans



the rate of global warming appears to be accelerated in the _____ ( consequences) - correct answer
✔✔arctic ( ice melting, island and species disappearance, overabundance of salt water, shortage of fresh
water )



what type of niches are used to predict responses to climate change ( climate envelope model) - correct
answer ✔✔realized ( fundamental would be better)



true / false:

in the experiment with water fleas, the phenotypic difference between the two sets of population could
have resulted from plasticity instead of evolution - correct answer ✔✔false, b/c it was several generation
further and not within one generation.



what 7 factors determine whether a species can adapt to an environmental change - correct answer
✔✔1) high recombination ( sexual reproduction)

2) niche width ( intermediate)

3) rate of warming ( low)

4) population size ( large)

5) net immigration ( high)

6) generation time (low)

7) mutation rate ( high)



Adaptation to climate change will depend on factors that influence what 4 factors - correct answer
✔✔mutation

selection

migration
