Answer:

The correct answer will be- Option-A

Explanation:

The Theory of Island Biogeography was proposed by the MacArthur and Wilson's in 1967 which proposed that the number of species-immigration and extinction rates are determined by the size of the island and distance of the island from the mainland.  

The suggestions made by them are:

1. The islands which remain farther from the mainland receive very few species as compared to the closest mainland.

2. Smaller island shows a high rate of species extinction as compared to the larger island.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

Radda [10]

Answer:

Mark thinks Karen is trying to represent the democratic type of parent.

Explanation:

Karen did not impose that Daniel keep playing tennis, which indicates that she is not trying the authoritarian style of parenting. Furthermore, she is not failing to care whether or not Daniel will stop playing tennis, which indicates that she is not trying the negligent parenting style.

However, Karen preferred to explain to Daniel that playing tennis is a beneficial activity and that she is helping him to stay on the team, which made Daniel reason and realize that she was right. This is an example of the democratic type of parentability, where countries explain their opinions on a particular topic, but allow their children to make their own decisions, without imposing reprisals, and without acting as if they don't care.
