Rich biodiversity is not important for

Paul Ehrlich
Which of the following is wrong about him?
(1) Stanford Ecologist
(2) Rivet Popper Hypothesis
(3) Importance of species actually affects the extent of stability of ecosystem
(4) Worked on Outdoor plots for the apology he proposed
David Tilman actually proposed that
(1) The long term ecosystem experiments using out door plots with less species showed less year to year variation in total number
(2) The long term ecosystem experiments using out door plots with more species showed less year to year variation in total biomass
(3) The long term ecosystem experiments using out door plots with more species showed more year to year variation in total number
(4) The long term ecosystem experiments using indoor plots with less species showed less year to year variation in total biomass
According to Rivet Popper Hypothesis, which of the following is not correct?
(1) Airplane: ecosystem
(2) Rivets: species
(3) Popping a rivet: causing a species to become extinct
(4) Flight safety: number of species
Which of the following loss of rivet will be more crucial for the flight safety?
(1) Loss of rivets on the wings
(2) Loss of rivets on the seats
(3) Loss of rivets on Windows inside the plane
(4) Both A and C
Which of the following is not correct according to analogy given by Paul Ehrlich?
(1) Loss of the key species that drive the major ecosystem functions is a more serious threat to flight safety than loss of other less important species
(2) Proper functioning of ecosystem is initially may not be affected by species loss
(3) Over a period of time, if the species loss is continuous, the ecosystem gets affected after a time
(4) Even the loss of not much significant species lead to crtical damage to ecosystem.
