Loss And Conservation Of Biodiversity Test

The extent to which numbers of different species are equal or skewed will refer to:

To preserve seeds that rapidly lose viability, can’t survive dessication and plants which are propagated vegetatively, method employed is :

Introducing exotic species into new areas will: i) increase competition for food & space. ii) introduce diseases iii) improve habitat iv) lead to extinction of native species

The legal conversion of land into the status of royal forest refers to:

Evolutionary potential will be determined by:

Which of the following is a major cause of reduction in gene pool?

Which of the following will maintain species diversity by stabilizing the food web and preventing competition?

Gene flow i.e. movement of genes will:

Adaptation to particular environmental conditions may weed out genetic variants that are not successful but populations stillneed those unsuccessful candidates : i. to prevent inbreeding and disease epidemics ii. to maintain greater genetic diversity

Objectives of conservation of biological diversity are: i) sustainable use of components of biodiversity. ii) non-sharing of benefits arising out of utilisation of genetic resources. iii) Using biological components for present generation only.
