Question

"true or false. the y-axis of a species-area curve indicates the number of species that can be maintained in a specified area of habitat; currently, precise estimates are only available for vertebrates and plants in tropical rain forests."

Answer 1

The answer is true. The Species-Area Curve lets us to forecast how many species will keep on if the forest is reduced in size by a stated amount. The y-axis specifies how many species can be preserved in an exact area while the x-axis specifies the area of habitat.
