Question

In complex ecosystems the degree of species diversity is

a) Poor b) high c) medium d) none​

Answer 1

The correct option is "(a) Poor"

Explanation:

• According to May's study, the complexity of the ecosystem increase with the interconnectivity of the species. This means more richly interconnected species, the more complex the ecosystem will be.

• Furthermore, he found out that there is an inverse relationship between connectivity and the number of species in a particular ecosystem.

• Thus, option (a) seems to be correct e.g. In a complex ecosystem, the degree of species diversity is Poor.
