EXTENSION: Biodiversity has many components. "Relative abundance" is a measure of how abundant the members are for one specific population when compared to all the living things in a community. The formula for this is: Relative Abundance (%) = [(# organisms in population of interest) / (total number of organisms in the community)] x 100 Given a 100 m² plot where the following species of grasses are present, calculate the relative abundance for species 4.
