Despite the fact that the seeds of certain tropical trees fall mostly around the parent tree, the seeds that land farther from the parent trees of these species have the greatest chance of germinating. One hypothesis is that the effect is caused by rodents eating a larger number of seeds beside the parent tree than seeds in places farther away, but studies have shown that this is not so.

Which of the following, If true, would most help explain the effect described above?

A.

Tree sprouts from seeds must compete for moisture and nutrients with some of the plant life in their immediate vicinity.

B.

Some tropical trees have winged seeds that tend to prevent them landing beside the parent trees.

C.

Certain tropical tree species are preferentially colonized by some types of mammals.

D.

Soil microbes that prey on seeds and other biological material from trees of the tropical species in question tend to be densest near those trees.

E.

Some plants emit chemicals that are harmful to nearby seeds of other species.

Because of the positive correlation across animal species between body size and home range size, researchers suspected that body size of female mallards (a species of duck) may influence their home range size. The researchers also reasoned that younger females may be forced into less suitable habitats by older females competing with them for optimal areas, with the younger females compensating by having larger home ranges. However, their research supported neither suspicion. The failure to detect variation of range size according to body size may be due to other, undetermined mallard attributes (for example, body condition) that may have been a significant factor affecting home range size. The fact that most yearling females can breed may help to explain why the expected age effect was not confirmed, since home range size may be affected by breeding capability.

The researchers did find, however, that home range size of females was Inversely related to the percentage of the study area composed of seasonal or semipermanent wetlands. This may have been because of reduced competition for breeding space within the species when more of the wetlands were present. They also found home range size to decrease somewhat as the percentage of wood-shrub habitat increased, suggesting that reduction in visual contact among mallard pairs may reduce interaction and thus reduce competition among breeding pairs.

The author's purpose in making the statement that most yearling female mallards are able to breed is most likely in order to

A.

explain the lack of corroboration from the study for the prediction that younger females may have larger home ranges than older females

B.

help confirm that home range size is affected by breeding ability

C.

support the point that younger females do not tend to have larger home ranges than older females

D.

explain a finding that younger females tend to have smaller home ranges than older females

E.

help explain why yearling female mallards apparently have home ranges of the same size as those of older female mallards

The passage mentions “high-frequency changes in inventory” (see bolded text) in order to

A.

explain how rapidly the process of inventory change can be effected

B.

isolate the causal factors that contribute to the changes in production that have been observed

C.

show how the concept of inventory is identical to the concept of buffer stock

D.

identify a kind of event that can help determine whether producers actually use inventories in the way described

E.

demonstrate that when changes in inventory are fast enough, efficient smoothing of production is achieved
