NEET · Biology · STD 12 - 13. biodiversity and conservation
Tropical regions show greatest level of species richness because \(A\). Tropical latitudes have remained relatively undisturbed for millions of years, hence more time was available for species diversification. \(B\). Tropical environments are more seasonal. \(C\). More solar energy is available in tropics. \(D\). Constant environments promote niche specialization. \(E\). Tropical environments are constant and predictable. Choose the correct answer from the options given below.
- A \(A\) and \(B\) only
- B \(A, B\) and \(E\) only
- C \(A, B\) and \(D\) only
- D \(A, C, D\) and \(E\) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(A, C, D\) and \(E\) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Only statement \(B\) is incorrect because tropical environments unlike temperate ones, are less seasonal, relatively more constant and predictable. Thus statements \(A, C, D\) and \(E\) are correct.
