Community 2 has 20 species with one species "Which community has a higher species richness"? A. Community 1. B. Community 2. C. Both have the same richness. D. There is not enough information to answer the question.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option C, Both have the same richness

Explanation:

Given –  

Community 1 has 20 species with each species having 100 individuals  

Community 2 has 20 species with each species having 1 individual

This indicates that the species richness is the same in both the communities because species richness is defined by the total number of species in a given community. There is no relation between “species abundance with in a community” to the species richness.  

Thus, option C is correct
