According to Species-Area relationship-

(1) Within a region, species richness  increased with increasing explored area, but only up to a limit

(2) Within a region, species evenness increased with an increasing explored area without limit

(3) Within a region, species diversity increases with increasing area.

(4) Both (1) and (2)

On a logarithmic scale, the relationship of species richness and area is a straight line described by the equation

(1) logS= logC+logZ

(2) logS= logZ+logA

(3) logS= logC+ZlogA

(4) logS= logZ+ClogA
