Options:

  • a lake
  • a prairie
  • the land an organic farmer uses to raise crops to feed his dairy cattle
  • a large island in the tropics that has snowcapped mountains

Answer:

a large island in the tropics that has snowcapped mountains

Explanation:

The land a farmer uses is likely to be quite highly regulated in order to ensure that his dairy cattle thrive. That means the growth of certain plants will be controlled, and this will likely impact diversity.

A lake and a prairie could have diverse and balanced ecosystems. However, due to the limited habitat are likely only to harbour specific organisms. E.g. the lake will only harbor organisms that thrive in water environments.

A large island will, first of all, have a lot of space to support diversity. It is in the tropics, meaning it will have species suited to a hot and wet environment. Since it is an island, there will also be the involvement of sea/ocean dwelling creatures. However, there is also mountainous habitat that has snow, meaning it is high up and cold. This provides a habitat for even more species adapted to different environments.

Therefore, the island will be the most diverse.

Answer:

a large island in the tropics that has snow-capped mountains

Explanation:

A tropical land area/ecosystem will by far have the greatest diversity in the ecosystem.

Biodiversity is the variation of life forms in an area. This is usually a function of the number of lives an area can support.

  • The tropics have abundant energy and the net production is very high.
  • Since there is availability of food for most organisms, different life form will find it easy to thrive in such an area.
  • Tropical regions of the world are the most biodiverse in the world with a rich fauna and floral abundance.

photosynthetic organisms

Explanation:

These are autotrophs organisms that use carbon dioxide and water, and with the help of solar energy, they produce nutritive material and release oxygen.

This is known as the process of photosynthesis and it is done in the organs of the plants that contain chloroplasts.

Explain why two oxygen atoms bond to a carbon atom to make a stable molecule of a carbon dioxide?
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

When carbon attached to oxygen, they form covalent bonds, in these kind of bonds, atoms share electrons to acquire stability.

Atoms acquire stability when they have 8 electrons in their outermost shell.

When carbon share electrons with oxygen they acquire 8 electrons and they are stable.

See the picture below

Red is carbon and blue oxygen
