True or false. The y-axis of a species-area curve indicates the number of species that can be maintained in a specified area of habitat; currently, precise estimates are only available for vertebrates and plants in tropical rain forests.

The statement is true.

Explanation:

The species-area curve is known as the relation between the area of habitat and the number of species found in that particular area. The larger the area, the larger the number of species. it mainly shows us particular single type of organism such as all the tropical specieses. It abides by this equation,

where,  S = the number of species,  A= area of habitat,  z = slope of the species-area curve.

In this curve, the y-axis represents the number of species and the x-axis represents the particular habitat area.

satellites are frequently used to make observations of the orbit on earth
