at large scales?

c. The reasons for the difference between these usual patterns?

Solutions

Expert Solution

a. Richness enhances vulnerability.

b. The native species richness affects other species slowly than that of exotic species richness.

c. Predation and availability of resources: space and food affects differences between the patterns.
