Chapter 22 Strategies for Sustainability
22.1 Graph and Figure Interpretation Questions
Figure 22.1
Use Figure 22.1 to answer the following questions.
Scientists with the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment analyzed sustainably managed
ecosystems. In this graph, the sustainably managed ecosystems and the ecosystems that have
been converted to private use are compared. Shown are land values calculated by researchers in
four such comparisons from sites around the world.

, 1) Which ecosystem has the greatest value?
A) Tropical forest, Cameroon
B) Mangrove, Thailand
C) Mangrove, Thailand plus Tropical forest, Cambodia
D) Wetland, Canada
E) Tropical forest, Cambodia
Answer: D
Diff: 1 Type: MC
Bloom's Taxonomy: 4 - Analyzing
Objective: 22.1 Explain the concept of sustainability and some of the key approaches to
sustainable development
2) Which ecosystem lost the most value (in dollars per hectare) in its conversion to private use?
A) Tropical forest, Cameroon
B) Wetland, Canada
C) Mangrove, Thailand plus Tropical forest, Cambodia
D) Tropical forest, Cambodia
E) Mangrove, Thailand
Answer: B
Diff: 2 Type: MC
Bloom's Taxonomy: 4 - Analyzing
Objective: 22.1 Explain the concept of sustainability and some of the key approaches to
sustainable development
3) Which of the conversions had the worst "rate of return" (i.e., which ecosystem lost the highest
percentage of its original value as a result of the conversion)?
A) Tropical forest, Cambodia
B) Wetland, Canada
C) Tropical forest, Cameroon
D) Mangrove, Thailand
E) None of the graphs show a particularly bad rate of return.
