Multiple Choice

Are the results of research by Joseph Connell,which led him to develop the intermediate disturbance hypothesis,universal in the sense that the greatest amounts of species richness are always at intermediate frequencies of disturbance?

A) Yes, this is a universal rule and there are no biomes where species richness peaks occur at low or high frequencies of disturbance.
B) No, this is not a universal rule and it cannot be demonstrated that it applies to any other communities.
C) Yes, this is a law in ecology that has allowed researchers to understand that reality is not so complex and that disturbance is the preeminent abiotic force structuring communities.
D) No, this is not a universal rule because in some communities diversity will peak at intermediate frequencies of disturbance, but this is not the case in all communities.
