1. Which factor does not affect species richness on islands?
Age of island
Geographical location
Habitat size
Island shape
Question 2
Which combination of factors will result in an island community with the lowest ecological tolerance?
Upwelling of colder ocean water, increased sunlight
Introduction of invasive species, increased freshwater sources
Increased human population, increased agricultural expansion
Increased colonization, decreased extinction rate
Question 3
The table depicts characteristics of five amphibian species (A–E). Use the information in the table to answer the following question:
Ecological Parameter Species A Species B Species C Species D Species E
Temperature Range 15–30 °C 10–40 °C 15–20 °C 10–30 °C 15–25 °C
Freshwater or Brackish Water Fresh/brackish Brackish Brackish Fresh Fresh/brackish
Food Sources Varied Two mainland species of grasshopper Only island arthropods Varied Varied
Habitat Lakes Estuaries/ponds Estuaries/ponds Lakes Lakes
Which individual(s) of the species listed in the table would likely die if moved to a new island habitat?
Species C and E
Species A and C
Species A only
Species B only
Question 4
Island biogeography studies the on islands.
mountain topography
natural disasters
distribution of species
climate change
Question 5
Increased deforestation reduces the habitat for an arthropod species preferred by an island reptile. Which of the following descriptions predicts the most likely outcome for these two species?
The reptile population increases as arthropods are confined to smaller sections of the island.
The reptile population decreases as arthropods decrease with their habitat.
Island arthropods decrease as the reptile population increases.
Island arthropods and reptiles both increase in the island habitat.
Question 6
Which statement describes a factor in the island biogeographical model?
Dispersing species are more likely to find smaller secluded habitats
Smaller populations are less likely to go extinct
Large islands have less available niches for immigrating species
Islands closer to the mainland have greater colonization
Question 7
Which of the following ideas helps explain the factors that affect island colonization of and species richness for a region?
Species-area effect
Rescue effect
Target effect
Time/stability hypothesis
I and II
II and III
I, II, IV
I, II, III, IV

This map shows how climate change might affect precipitation patterns in the great plains of the united states by the end of this century. brown shoes a decrease in percipitation, and blue shows an increase. the maps differ based on the predictive levels of green house emissions. the maps shows that northern area should get a. more pracipations regardless of emmissions b. less pracipation, regardless of emmissions levels c. more precipitation, but only when emission levels. southern areas show a. more pracipations regardless of emmissions b. less pracipation, regardless of emmissions levels c. more precipitation, but only when emission levels. to use these maps to prepare for natural disasters in the great plains, scientist need to ask? a. how many tons of emissions were used at the basis of the map. b. which types of fossil fuels are used in the great plains c. if you think the above is wrong it's probly c the question is cut off
