A) The number of species will be directly proportional to the size of the island and the number of colonizers that inhabit the island in the first 90 days.
B) The theory of island biogeography makes no predictions about a relationship between number of species and size of island or its distance from mainland.
C) The turnover rate will be positively associated with time to first colonization event, distance from mainland, number of competitors, and area of the island.
