Which statements describe the relationship between the area and the biodiversity of an ecosystem? check all that apply. large ecosystems always have higher biodiversity than smaller ecosystems. a large area of a forest will likely have higher biodiversity than a smaller area of the same forest. a half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert. small ecosystems always have low biodiversity. the same area of two different types of ecosystems will have the same biodiversity.

Large ecosystems always have higher biodiversity than smaller ecosystems.

A large area of a forest will likely have higher biodiversity than a smaller area of the same forest.

Small ecosystems always have low biodiversity.

A half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert.

The ecosystem can be defined a biological community, in which living beings interacts with the non-living physical environment. Biodiversity refers to the variety of living beings distributed to different geographical ranges. The larger  area can support large ecosystem, more area will be available for survival. Larger ecosystem ensures food availability, habitat, mates and other resources, hence will reduce competition among the population of species and between different species. Hence, will support increase in biodiversity.

Smaller area can only support small ecosystem. It may result in limitations in food availability, area to be used as habitat, few mates will be available, hence, it will promote competition among populations of species and between different species. Competition will results in decrease in species diversity in an ecosystem. Hence, small ecosystem will always have low biodiversity.

A half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert because rainfall provides suitable environmental factors such as adequate rainfall, fertile soil and weather conditions that supports the growth of living species especially plants. But deserts exhibit dry and hot climatic conditions. It receives no or very little rain fall, soil is also less fertile. Hence, it can support the growth of very low biodiversity as compared to rain forests.

3.Small ecosystems always have low biodiversity

4.A half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert.

Explanation:

the answer is otpion c) understanding

he wants to be heard one more time. he wants to be understood. he needs the truth one more time.

when you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. this increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. the intercostal muscles between your ribs also enlarge the chest cavity. they contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.
