Which of the following statements is correct about landscape ecology?
a) It deals with the study of the home ranges of various animals.
b) It is the application of ecological principles to land-use planning.
c) It deals primarily with ecosystems in urban settings.
d) It focuses primarily on human-altered ecological systems.
e) It is the application of ecological principles to the design and construction of sustainable lawns and gardens.
I'd say it's b.
Because landscape ecology is all about conservation and sustainability. a is just the study of animal habitats. c is only urban settings. d is human-altered land only. e relates to lawns and gardens, which is very strange!
So really, b seems the only one left that sounds right.
