Question
State whether true or false:
Regions with very low levels of ecological richness are termed ‘Biodiversity Hotspots’.
Options:
A .  True
B .  False
C .  Species richness is inversely proportional to explored area
D .  log S = log C + Z log A
Answer: Option B
:
B
Biodiversity Hotspots are those regions that are specially protected by law. These regions have a high degree of species richness and diversity. Most species that are native to these Hotspots have a high degree of endemism which means that they cannot be found elsewhere on earth. Hence, to specially demarcate such important biodiversity reserves and to help protect their species, 34 Hotspots have been identified so far.
