I believe the correct answer is true. A species accumulation curve can be used as a tool to approximate local, or alpha, diversity. The shape of this curve depends largely on the order of the samples processed. Hope this answers the question.
Answer:
The correct answer is: (A).
Explanation:
- In the question, it is mentioned that the algae can grow under the conditions of "enough sunlight" and "enough nutrients".
- Sunlight reaches the algae, by first falling on the surface made up of ice and snow and then refracting from there into the top layer of the ice where the algae grows.
- However, the capability of both snow and ice to reflect sunlight is far more than that of refracting sunlight.
- Therefore, the amount of light received by the algae is similar in absence or presence of the layer of snow on the top layer of ice.
- However, on deposition of snow on the layer of the ice, the weight of the ice increases and it sinks below into sea water.
- This allows more nutrient rich sea water to percolate into the ice and reach the algae.
- The algae receive more nutrients from the sea water and hence is capable undergoing better metabolism and growth.
- Hence, more algae are produced under such a situation.
