Question

The species-area relationship is represented on a log scale as ______.

विकल्प

• inverted

• rectangular hyperbola

• hyperbola

• linear

Answer 1

The species-area relationship is represented on a log scale as a linear.

Explanation:

On a log-log scale, the relationship between species richness (S) and area (A) is given by: 

log S = log C + Z log A

This is the equation of a straight line (linear relationship), where:

• Log S is plotted on the y-axis
• Log A is plotted on the x-axis

So, on a logarithmic scale, the relationship is linear.
