According to Alexander von Humboldt

A Species richness goes on increasing with increasing area of exploration
B Species richness decreases with increasing area of exploration
C Species richness increases with increasing area, but only up to limit
D There is no relationship between species richness and area explored

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Species richness increases with increasing area, but only up to limit

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As per species area relationship curve of Alexander von Humboldt the species richness increases with increasing area but only upto certain limit.

Apply the relevant identity from the chapter and substitute the values established in the previous step, keeping the original constraint in view.

Use the simplified expression to isolate the unknown, then plug the result back into the question setup to confirm the working is internally consistent.

Cross-check against a boundary or limiting case. Both the dimensional balance and the qualitative behaviour at the extreme should agree with the candidate answer.

Combine the steps above to identify the correct option. The remaining choices each fail at least one of the consistency, dimensional, or boundary checks.
