Why are there more species in an acre of tropical rain forest than in an acre farther from the equator, such as in a temperate forest or prairie?
How do the location of biodiversity hot spots and number of mammalian species correlate?
1. Biodiversity hot spots are located in places where there is overall low biodiversity of mammals. Biodiversity hot spots are located in places where there is overall high biodiversity of mammals. Biodiversity hot spots are usually found closer to the poles, whereas mammalian biodiversity is greatest nearer to the equator. 1 and 3

On average, species persist for about 10 million years, although some last for hundreds of millions of years
According to the graph, when was the largest mass extinction event?
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 450 million years ago 375 million years ago 250 million years ago 210 million years ago 65 million years ago

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 450 million years ago 375 million years ago 250 million years ago 210 million years ago 65 million years ago
Current
rates of extinction in every wellstudied group of plants and animals support the hypothesis that a mass extinction is underway.
Seems to
WHOOPS!
