The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct statements from the given options, we need to analyze each statement based on the definitions of ecological services: 1. **Supporting Ecological Services**: These services are essential for the production of all other ecosystem services. They include processes such as nutrient cycling and oxygen production. - **Statement I**: "Supporting ecological services - Oxygen release into ecosystem" is **correct** because oxygen release is a fundamental supporting service provided by photosynthetic organisms. 2. **Provisioning Ecological Services**: These are the products obtained from ecosystems, such as food, fresh water, wood, fiber, and genetic resources. - **Statement II**: "Provisioning ecological services - Climate regulation in ecosystem" is **incorrect** because climate regulation is not a provisioning service; it is a regulating service. Provisioning services refer to tangible products rather than climate control. 3. **Regulating Ecological Services**: These services regulate natural processes and include water purification, flood protection, and climate regulation. - **Statement III**: "Regulating ecological services - water purification and flood protection" is **correct** as both water purification and flood protection are examples of regulating services. 4. **Cultural Services**: These services provide non-material benefits, including recreational, aesthetic, and educational experiences. - **Statement IV**: "Cultural services - Education, recreation and aesthetic value" is **correct** because these activities fall under cultural services. ### Summary of Correct Statements: - Statement I: Correct - Statement II: Incorrect - Statement III: Correct - Statement IV: Correct Thus, the correct statements are I, III, and IV. ### Final Answer: The correct statements are I, III, and IV.
