    If redundancy in the role of species is widespread in nature. How would ecosystem function change with increasing biodiversity?

    A)   

    B)

    C)

    D)

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    No matter how rapidly population grows, it eventually reaches a limit imposed by shortage of important environmental factors such as space, light, water or nutrients. A population ultimately may stabilise at a certain size, called the carrying capacity of the particular place where it lives.
    Various experimental field studies support the hypothesis that species-rich communities are more stable. Species richness promotes ecosystem productivity and is fostered by spatial heterogeneity and stable climate.
