The best answer is; False

The mark and recapture method of determining population size is not always more effective than the sampling method.

The mark and recapture method works by trapping and marking the animals in groups. The method relies on ratios of marked to unmarked organisms. The numbers of the animals that are marked and the unmarked are recorded and used to estimate the population size. This method is not very effective but it is most when useful when the entire organism in a population cannot be counted practically.  

The sampling method determines the population size of organisms by sampling them using quantitative techniques such as quadrats (for immobile organisms such as plants) and pitfall traps (for animals). The sampling method is considered to be more effective than the mark and recapture method.

Which of the following is a good predictor of biodiversity in terrestrial ecosystems?
finlep [7]

The correct answer is - predator species in a community.

In the terrestrial ecosystems, a very good and usually sure predictor of the biodiversity is the existence of a predator species. The more predator species there are, the higher the biodiversity, and vice versa, the less predator species, the lesser the biodiversity.

The reason why the predators are such a good predictor of the biodiversity is that they are the species that are on the top of the food chain. That means that the predators are dependent for their survival on all the other species bellow them in the food chain, which is pretty much all species apart from themselves.

If a predator is present, than there has to be pray. If there's pray, omnivores and herbivores, than there has to be plants. All of the organisms are connected to one another, and the ones on the top of the food chain are the most dependent on the others, thus their existence usually means a healthy ecosystem with higher biodiversity.

A student is considering adding Egeria densa, an aquatic plant, to her freshwater tank. She is concerned about the effects of pH
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Egeria densa is an aquatic plant which has developed different means of carrying out photosynthesis under conditions of low carbon dioxide. During the process, the plant generate low pH at the leaf surface during high light intensity and this acidification shift the process equilibrium towards carbon dioxide which will then diffuse into the cell through passive diffusion.
Thus, if the student place the plant inside her fresh water tank, the plant will increase the carbon dioxide content of the water, which will lead to an increase in pH and the increase in pH will negatively affect the fish.
