Select incorrect statements w.r.t. greater biological diversity in tropics
(A) Tropical latitudes have remained relatively undisturbed for millions of yeasrs and thus had a long evolutionary time for species diversification.
(B) Tropical enviroments are more seasonal and less predictable than temperates.
(C) There is more solar available which contributes to higher productivity.

What is so special about tropics that might account for their greater biological diversity? a. Unlike temperate regions subjected to frequent glaciations in the past, tropical latitudes have remained relatively undisturbed for millions of years and thus, had a long evolutionary time for species diversification. b. Temperate environments, unlike tropical ones, are less seasonal, relatively more constant and predictable. Such constant environments promote niche specialization and lead to a greater species diversity. c. There is more solar energy available in the tropics, which contributes to higher productivity, this in turn might contribute indirectly to greater diversity.

Which of the following is a reason for the greater biological diversity of tropical regions ? (a) Tropical latitudes have remained almost undisturbed for millions of years. (b) Tropical environments are less seasonal, relatively more constant and predictable. (c) More solar energy is available in the tropics, resulting in high productivity. (d) All of these

Select the reasons why tropical regions have more biodiversity than temperate regions . 1. Tropical latitudes have remained relatively undisturbed for millions of years . 2. Temperate environments, unlike tropical ones , are less seasonal , relatively more constant and predictable . 3 . Temperate regions were subjected to frequent glaciations in the past. 4. There is more solar energy available in the tropics which contributes to higher productivity .

Pick up the reason for greater biological diversity at tropical latitudes (A) Availability of more solar energy (B) Tropical environments are less seasonal & more constant (C) Tropical latitudes were not subjected to glaciations (D) All the above

Assertion (A): There is more species biodiversity in tropical latitudes than in temperate ones. Reason (R) : Tropical environments, unlike temperate ones, are less seasonal, relatively more constant and predictable.
