According to MacArthur and Wilson's theory of island
biogeography, both the land area (size) of an island and the
_____ contribute to species diversity. - ✔✔✔ Correct
Answer > distance of the island from neighboring land masses
Habitat fragmentation occurs frequently with current logging
practices. The figure below shows a fragmented set of patches
in a logged area. At equilibrium, which forest fragment is likely
to hold the LARGEST number of species? - ✔✔✔ Correct
Answer > population J
The theory of island biogeography describes the number of
species on an island as being determined by an equilibrium
between the processes of immigration and extinction. Consider
a small, far-offshore island and a large, near-shore island.
Which island is expected to have a HIGHER equilibrium number
,of species? - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > near-shore, large
island
A severe drought is an example of a density-_____ factor that
can influence population size. The availability of nest sites is an
example of a density-_____ factor. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer
> independent; dependent
A _____ consists of all the individuals of a given species that live
and reproduce in a particular place. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer
> population
You are surveying biodiversity on a new island chain. You have
counted the number of bat species on one island already. The
next island is smaller and farther from the mainland than the
one you have just surveyed. According to the theory of island
biogeography, the total number of its bat species should be
_____ than on the current island because the rate of
immigration to the new island should be _____ and the rate of
extinction should be _____. Refer to Figure 46.17. - ✔✔✔
Correct Answer > smaller; lower; higher
,Although all Anolis feed on insects and other invertebrates,
they have evolved different feeding strategies that are
reflected in: - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > habitat preference.
skull morphology.
behavior.
leg morphology.
In the experiments with moss patches described in your text,
what were the two factors that affected insect extinction rates
within patches? - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > patch size and
patch connectivity (usable habitat corridors between patches)
When sea turtle eggs hatch, predators gather and mortality
among the hatchlings is extremely high. Once turtles reach
adult size, they can live for decades. This is an example of Type
_____ survivorship. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > III
Habitat fragmentation occurs frequently with current logging
practices. The figure below shows a fragmented set of patches
in a logged area. Which of the subpopulations is MOST likely to
go extinct? - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > population K
, The figures below represent three hypothetical populations;
each circle is an individual. Select the pattern above that
describes the following scenario: Individuals are distributed
randomly within the environment. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer
> diagram K
An r-strategist will typically: - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer >
produce many small offspring.
Prairie dogs are rodents that live in colonies. Black-tailed prairie
dog (Cynomys ludovicianus) colonies typically have around 12
adult animals per hectare. What aspect of the population
ecology of the black-tailed prairie dog does this statement
describe? - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > population density
In general, a species' _____ niche will be smaller than its _____
niche due to interactions with other organisms in the
community. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > realized;
fundamental
_____ is an interaction in which individuals require the same
resource, and therefore the availability of that resource is
lowered. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > Competition
