Question

Suppose the total area of a habitat is 200m2 and 1m2 quadrant is placed in randomly selected areas . If the average number of plans species in 20 randomly selected area of the habitat is 2 , what will be the number of plant species of the habitat .

Answer 1

400 plant species

Step-by-step explanation:

The average number of species in 20 randomly selected area = 2

Size of quadrat = 1 m2

Total size of habitat = 200 m2

Population density per 1 m2 = 2

if 2 plant species occupy 1 m2 of the habitat area, then the number of plants that will occupy 200 m2 equals:

2 x 200 = 400 plant species
