Answer:The number of bats should be declining than the current island because the rate of immigration to the new island will be less and the rate of extinction should be very slow.
Explanation:
Due to the fact that the new island is a smaller one and farther from the mainland,the bats will be restricted by space hence it's population density will be relatively small
Answer:
According to island biogeography, the total number of its bat species should be lower than on the current island because the rate of immigration to the new island should be less and the rate of extinction should be low.
Explanation:
The distance between old Island and new island is large so less immigration occurs which maintains the population of bat species.
Rate of immigration refers to the movement of species to other areas and colonize there, whereas rate of extinction refers to the removal of certain specie in a particular area with the passage of time. It depends on the distance between old habitat and new area. If the distance is less, the rate of immigration will be more while if the distance is large, rate of immigration will be lower which stable the population of species.
