Species extinction:

1

שאלה #19498

		Is a result of the increased human influence on earth
		Is a natural part of the evolutionary process
		Does not have any effect on biodiversity loss
		Currently, in the 21st century, the rate of species evolution is much higher than the rate of species extinction

The term 'Mass Extinction':

1

שאלה #19499

		Refers to a mass extinction event of large-bodied species, such as the dinosaurs
		Refers to events associated with much higher “extinction rates” than the background extinction rate
		Refers to extinction events which are a direct result of human actions
		Refers to six geological eras in which new evolving species became extinct

The current state of biodiversity:

1

שאלה #19500

		The majority of all existing species have been listed in the IUCN Red List as threatened, which means that they face high risk of extinction in the wild
		The IUCN red list is continuously updated according to changes in species status throughout time: for example, the percent of threatened mammal species has decreased considerably in the last decade
		A species is defined as extinct in the wild if no members of the species are found in the species’ breeding sites during the breeding season
		Only a minor portion of all existing species have been evaluated and categorized for their status by the IUCN

Efficient conservation efforts should:

1

שאלה #19501

		Focus only on ecosystem restoration
		Target a range of spatial scales and different conservation units
		Omit reintroduction projects as these are expensive and risky
		Direct all research efforts to species protection

Target a range of spatial scales and different conservation units

The main advantage of reintroduction is that it:

1

שאלה #19502

		Improves the conservation of species and its ecosystem
		Reestablishes the role of top predators in the ecosystem thus restoring the ecosystem functionality
		Attracts public awareness to the importance of returning species that occurred during the Pleistocene.
		All answers are correct

Improves the conservation of species and its ecosystem

Usually, small populations:

1

שאלה #19503

		Attract public awareness because of their role in disease transmission to other species
		Have high genetic diversity which can lead to species extinction
		Are prone to extinction because of the combined effect of different factors
		Are spatially connected to other populations

Which case has the highest probability for a successful reintroduction project?

1

שאלה #19504

		The release site is within the species’ historical range of distribution, where natural habitats are under development pressure
		The released individuals are selected according to their sex and age from a permanent breeding core of the species
		Hunting is forbidden in the site of release but is enabled in its surroundings
		The population in captivity is large and individuals are released directly to the wild to acclimatize to the natural conditions without the need for habituation enclosure

reintroduction project = Sex & Age

In which of the following cases should species reintroduction be avoided?

1

שאלה #19505

		The species’ population in captivity is large
		The species is not considered a flagship species
		The species’ natural habitat is patchy and disconnected/isolated
		Hunting is regulated in the species’ natural habitat

When is a species considered critically endangered by the IUCN?

1

שאלה #19506

		If no members of the species are found in the species’ range of distribution over a period of several years
		If it is spread over a relatively small range (less than 100 square km)
		If it has low genetic diversity
		If its population suffers from a highly transmissible disease

Endangered = less than 100 km

What is the major aim of Conservation Biology?

1

שאלה #19507

		To bring back the extinct species
		To rewild ecosystems by reintroducing species
		To maintain biodiversity throughout the world
		All answers are correct
