The ecological diversity involves all of the following except

• Number of niches

• Trophic levels

• Genetic factors

• Ecological Processes

The study of rates of colonization and extinction of species on islands or other isolated areas is known as

• The study of Islandology

• Genetic drift

• Demographic bottleneck

• Island biogeography

A population founded when just a few members of a species survive a catastrophic event or colonize a new habitat that isolated is known as

• Genetic drift

• Island biogeography

• Species biodiversity

• Supporting services

• Provisioning services

I am walking through a park and enjoying nature. This is an example of what kind of ecosystem service?

• Cultural service

• Regulating service

• Nature walk

• Supporting service

One example of a supporting service would be

• Fresh water

• Erosion

• Nutrient cycling
