Which of the following has the highest species richness? A community with 35 species of high evenness. 34 species of high evenness. 888 33 species of low evenness. 36 species with very low evenness.
Sea otters, Enhydra lutris, are predators of sea urchins, Strongylocentrotus franciscanus. Sea urchins, in turn, feed on kelp. A study was conducted to determine the effect that Enhydra lutris has on kelp biodiversity. To do so, three bays that have had sea otter populations for varying amounts of time were assessed. Two different types of kelp were studied: a perennial kelp, Laminaria groenlandia, and other annual kelps. The results are shown in the graph below. Additional studies have illustrated the importance of sea otter populations in kelp ecosystems. In the absence of sea otters, the ecosystem collapses. What role do sea otters serve in this ecosystem? a) Keystone species b) Dominant species c) Competitive exclusion d) Obligate species

If you compare species richness and evenness along the edge versus in the center of a tree farm and then make the same comparison for a rain forest, what would you expect to find? There would probably be a greater difference in richness but less difference in evenness between the tree farm and the rain forest. There would probably be a greater difference in evenness but less difference in richness between the tree farm and the rain forest. There would probably be about the same difference between the core and the edge in the tree farm versus the rain forest. There would probably be more difference between the core and the edge in the tree farm versus the rain forest. There would probably be less difference between the core and edge in the tree farm versus the rain forest.
