Paragraph 5: Even the kind of stability defined as simple lack of change is
not always associated with maximum diversity. At least in temperate zones,
maximum diversity is often found in mid-successional stages, not in the
climax community. Once a redwood forest matures, for example, the kinds of
species and the number of individuals growing on the forest floor are
reduced. In general, diversity, by itself, does not ensure stability.
Mathematical models of ecosystems likewise suggest that diversity does not
guarantee ecosystem stability—just the opposite, in fact. A more complicated
system is, in general, more likely than a simple system to break down. (A
fifteen-speed racing bicycle is more likely to break down than a child’s
tricycle.)
7. Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 5 about redwood
forests?
○They become less stable as they mature.
○They support many species when they reach climax.
○They are found in temperate zones.
○They have reduced diversity during mid-successional stages.
想請問為什麼A不對呢??
而且其實我不太懂紅樹林的例子跟他要表達的論點有何關係
希望知道的人幫忙解答~謝謝!
