NEET Botany (general) Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Easy-Class 12
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Species richness in tropics | (i) Higher productivity due to solar energy |
| (b) Alexander von Humboldt's observation | (ii) Increased explored area leads to more species |
| (c) Stable community attributes | (iii) Resistance to disturbances |
| (d) Fungi species diversity | (iv) More species than vertebrates |
A
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
D
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Tropical regions have higher species richness due to greater solar energy availability, which contributes to productivity (a-i). Humboldt noted that species richness increases with explored area (b-ii). A stable community can resist disturbances (c-iii). The Fungi group indeed has more species than all vertebrates combined (d-iv).
